the boy Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Hi Ash, hope all is good. What standard is the fretboard replacement.
the boy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 [quote name='ash' timestamp='1343633252' post='1752786'] I fitted it on my 70s P bass to try it and it's a nice neck. [/quote] I bet it is, and defo worth the asking price. Thanks for the info.
Shaggy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 [quote name='ash' timestamp='1343577633' post='1752252'] Yep I'm well thanks! The fretboard is nicely fitted albeit a little untidy as can be seen on the pics, the truss rod nut is worn but turns without problems. The fretboard was apparently maple originally and it had had a disastrous re-fret hence the replacement board. [/quote] Could be wrong about this, but if it had been originally maple board wouldn't the neck have a rear skunk stripe? Plus being one-piece it would have to be planed right down for a replacement board. Whatever - it's a lovely old neck at great price, very tempted myself but I've sworn off projects for a while....
