TimAl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) My first ever project - time to clear some space in an Everything Must Go frenzy! Originally an Encore Precision neck- but defretted & visually changed by yours truly & actually played really well once put back together. Original tuners & string tree - all works as it should - maybe a bit of fun for someone? £25.00 collected from me in Bedford with cash upon collection, or happy to post at cost which I'm guessing would be around a tenner with payment via PayPal including fees.

alyctes Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Is this "normal" 42mm-ish P-bass width at the nut? I think I may have a cunning plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz39 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 What are the fret lines filled with to make it smooth? Is it a heavy neck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I used a really dark wood filler Daz - so the lines look black - & no, although the scales have currently disappeared I'd say it's a 'normal' weight - not noticeably heavier than any other.

Daz39 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Hmm. Curiouser and curioser. I have a Columbus P-Bass on which the fretted neck is both a) heavier than ought to be legal, and is far too baseball-bat for my liking. Reckon this has the same attachment alignment? Is there a pic of the back of the bit where it fits in the pocket (is that the heel? I dunno) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
