Its actually very nice for the money, although it did need a bit of sanding to fit the neck socket on a squire body. Quote
beerdragon Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) As simon1964 says they are ok for the money. i had to sand mine down too to fit a Squier body. be prepared for a quite chunky profile also. Edited July 8, 2009 by beerdragon Quote
Ou7shined Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) They use Dr. Parts necks. I have 2 of them, one is absolutely brilliant with nice maple featuring and the other was a bit of a Friday night special and finished a bit poorly (but that doesn't really matter if your doing your own build). They are actually pretty good necks for the money with a nice solid feel and crisp tone to them. edit : in fact the neck in my avatar <- is a Dr. Parts one on my main giging bass.

TDM Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Would you say it's about the same quality as a Mighty Mite neck? Quote
Ou7shined Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Maybe better but like I say you get good uns and bad uns. Quote
