I just picked up a bronco body, was curious to find a good neck, w/o spending loads. I found a squire cyclone neck- would that fit?

Not without adjusting the bridge location. Cyclones are 24.75 whereas Broncos are 24.00. Search Ebay for "proper" shortscales (24.00)

Pics? Does the Bronco have the Bronco Trem in it?

OK thanks for the info Mo- looks like I will search for any used jaguar, duo sonic, short scales on ebay or the pawn shops. I don't want to spend much and am always looking for deals. Taylornutt- The Bronco body does not have a trem in it. I am searching for one of those as well. I just have a body.

Good Luck. That could be one of the hardest vintage parts to find.

I'm starting to realize that- I guess I could always fill the cavity and rout it for a mustang trem.... or a tornado bridge. I'm really interested in making a great guitar w/ little investment- this is my second guitar project. I had a blast w/ the first one (a tele) now I'm going after a garage rock special. Debating looking for a used ebay neck or getting a $140 jaguar replacement neck.

I have a couple of the parts, but not near enough to make a full trem. Just the spring and base plate.
I really need to make so replacements.

I just ran across this

No but at that price I might take a shot, especially if it's the elusive Maple Stang neck. They also do Lefty necks which would be great for Supersonic projects.
