Well I had a go at measuring the twist and failed miserably.
I then photographed it - the image attached shows the twist.
Then sent an email to the boys at Pitbull with said picture.
Received an email the following morning saying that they were
very sorry to hear of my woes and that a neck selected by Ben was on it's way to me.
From previous experience it will take 7-10 days to get here so
I will get on with the electrics and use the neck to try some experiments with oiling and lacquering.
After that it will make a great paint stirrer.
What can I say ?
Extremely impressed with Pitbull's responses all the way through this.
I can not fault them, well done.
