Strat next

Post by MrJulius »

Ok, so I got my rosewood start neck (via warmoth) on my strat and I'm loving it... Good stuff... Part-o-casters = duh bomb

Anyway, I'm looking to do a slightly cheaper build than my last for a backup/spare to keep around the studio deal. And the main cost is going to be my neck. Anyone had experience with these http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :middle:us necks? How can it be 120$ and still be "good"

Way cheaper and still "GOOD." The quality of squier necks are fine, and you won't have to spend as much cash.

i can vouche for mighty mite, i got one ages ago, put a decal on the headstock and then let it sit,
rob has it now i gave it to him when i re-finnished his squire neck.
the fretting was really ace, the finish was really good, and the overal feel and look was pleasing.
and it felt like a quility peice.
squire necks are decent, but i would go for a mightymite.

Mighty Mite necks are very good necks.Also Eden makes nice necks for the cheeps.How they do it?I have no idea.
I have used both and have no complaints on either brand.And yes the Squiers(some) are nice necks.
