ah, didn't realise it was dave's old one. i've got the '65 neck that was his. is yours a B width? i'm actually slightly over A width necks now because i'm so used to playing the jag all the time.

Yeah its a B neck, perfect size. That Jag neck in the pic with the JM body was one I picked up cos it was an A. I searched for it for ages cos my first 65 stang had an A neck and I loved that guitar. If you decide to let that neck go let me know cos I'm still looking for a neck for my 65 duo. It's currently neckless. Interested in trading it out?

Cool. If I manage to snag one for the Duo I'll give you a shot to see if you like it. I'd like an A width on the Duo. I wouldn't get rid of the one that's on the Mustang cos it's perfect.

Do you have the A width neck on something at the moment?
