    Bolt-on neck wanted (buy/trade)

    Hi folks, just wondering if anyone has a bolt-on guitar neck, ideally a strat style but others considered, that they want to offload? I've got a weird idea for a build that will require some significant neck reshaping! Not sure if it will work so don't want to invest too much at this point. I'm happy to buy or trade but just thought I'd put it out there.
    Completed Builds: #1 TL-1 "Telemaster" (GOTM Oct 2016); #2 The "Maplecaster" scratch build; #3 JB-4 "Bass IV" (co-winner GOTM Jan 2017); #4 ST-1M "Surfcaster" (GOTM Apr 2017), #5 JZA-1 "EC Deluxe"

    In Progress:
    Build #6 N1R "Semi-scratch" build
    Build #7 JZA-1 Baritone

    Hey Chuck sounds interesting. If you only need a 21 fret strat neck they are only $55.
    I bought a few off adds mix of strat and tele and most have been chewed up with CNC bodies haha

    Cheers Wok, that's the plan if no one has one - just figured I'd see if there was a surplus one floating around first!

    no worries Chuck. Necks at 4D are like gold bars, always a surplus of bodies haha
    Hope to get off my bum soon and start learning the programming side of CNC so I can make my own necks

    Yes. Igor has created a similar problem in the FrankenLab.
