Mustang-Warmouth neck

I am new to the forum after having browsed around here for a couple of months.
I've been after a mustang of any sort for a while now and was wondering if i could get an opinion of one i found on ebay. The competition stripe on the body and the hotrails lead me to believe it used to belong to a member of the forum (fran).
Also i was wondering if anybody had any experience with warmouth necks? I'm not sure whether the fact this has one is appealing or not.
Cheers

I am looking for one, I posted the link at the bottom of my post of the same mustang. I arranged to go down to Birmingham today to buy a 69RI off a guy but hes made no contact with me since I asked him for an address.
I was asking around on here whether this would be a good purchase despite not having the original neck

that does look like fran's old one, he got the neck from mike originally, so i'm sure one of them could tell you more about it.

the neck looks like a fender mustang neck, so i dont see the reasons why you wouldnt buy it.. i mean 250 dollars for it? its cheap!!

Well in the description it says that its a warmouth neck so its not original.
And don't forget pounds in the UK!

looks pretty nice anyway..
but to be sure, you would have to play it.. and see how it feels!
its always a little risky buying things from ebay.
okay so the price was in pounds! then i understand..
buy a new one from thomann.de
its a reissue, but what the hell, then you know what youre gonna get for youre money!

I love Warmoth necks, I have one on my Jaguar. I think Mike didn't like that neck because of the compound radius i.e. the radius goes from 10" to 16".
BTW, it's WarMOTH.

Ah right ok warMOTH.
Well i've no need to worry about this anymore. My original plan followed through and now I have a lovely 69RI in my hands as we speak!
The headmasters ritual never sounded so good!

the reissues are nice, too, and usually a fair bit cheaper than the vintage.
welcome to the forums!

Ah thank you glad to finally be on here.
And yeah I think I got a pretty good deal on mine, second hand with a marshall mini stack for £300
