measured the warmoth and musikraft neck and they are actually 24.685" in scale length - can anyone confirm?

nut width and scale length matters NOT the fretboard radius

1st full moon after the summer solstice - sounds unreal afterwards

I wouldn't call it phobia, it's just that blackface amps sound better without them

I had exactly one Fender Strat sold it after a couple of month and started building partscasters - there is no way back, ever! wood acts differently in different climates - it’s not all the manufactureres fault

sell it and build a partscater!

nope, the neck pocket should be tapered (as should be the neck)

Hello, does any one know where to find a template for a conversion scale neck. The regular fret spacing calculator for 24.75 from SM is not accurate obviously. After the 21st there should be a much smaller gap. I measured the Warmoth conversion scale neck and got the following (rough)...

that would be incorrect for a 1961 neck for all I know. It it was introduced with the veneer fingerboard. courtesy of precbsguitars Here is what I would order if I were the OP that is 725 bucks for a Neck without finish and incorrect dots Colortones "Straw" dye or "aged clear" laquer...

particularly if you consider what "luthier supply" shops charge for it - a lot less it will probably be cheaper to ask some builders in your area if the could build you a custom neck with vintage accurate clay dots

Slab, Brazilian Rosewood 59 Truss Rod, Single Acting Bone Nut Wide Dot Spacing at 12th Fret Rock/Hard Maple - if you want to get real specific, install your own "vulcanized fibre dots" because the "real aged clay" is not vintage accurate - Narrow Nut width, 7,5" Radius, .8 to .95 Thickness...

Rift Amps - Aynsley Lister

the ladies say more comfortable for the feet

not anymore, as a beginner I wanted to play like Pierre Bensusan and Ian Melrose - tried for a year - it ended any aspirations I had being able to play like Naudo wood be fun though

if you can resist the lure of marketing it is how many wifes do you have?

nope you are perfectly fine - everything else will pass. Ever wondered why the Ebook market never really caught on? And the greatest benefit - the good old, vintage stuff costs even less than new ones - tell that to guitar sellers! I recommend 1984 and Brave new world - never been more current!

I like Basketball but I won't support organizations like the NBA

here would be my choices - what are yours Guitar: 1981 Tokai ST-60 Springy Sound -$1,125 Pickups: Van Zandt True Vintage - $155 Amp: 1977 Fender Vibrolux Reverb - $1500 Total: $2780

I have two necks with dual acting TRs - both guitars are crazy resonant and have almost too much sustain. I will give the single acting one a try next time though.

maple neck and ash body - obviously

came across this from Kinmans website and found it quite interesting. What do you guys think? "Personally I dislike anything other than the single-bent-truss rod used on traditional Strats. The double expander or under-and-over rod as it is sometimes called presents a number of disadvantages...

bought the ABM PVS saddles cause I did not like the look of highwood. I think the Fender were 2,8g for each saddle the ABM are 3,7g. When inquiring about the hardness of their steel they told me it was a secret. Which is pretty ridicolous as if someone is going to copy their product - because...

@dirocyn - wanted to give it a try to see if I can hear a difference (I always use 2 1/16th bridges and a 12" Fretboard radius). Next Pus should be non staggered and narrower spaced

could not find any manufacturers. Any ideas? P.S.: just found cetera a swiss builder
