Hi Si. Did warmoth do your sanding?

Thanks for the heads up. I really want skinny. Allparts say they can shave a neck to my spec, but then the warranty is lost. Looks like the 62RI is the spec for me, but they dont come with the blocks ... There is a walnut neck on ebay at the moment. Any thoughts ... cheers.

These necks look stunning. I am interested in a J neck. All the necks at warmoth are listed as standard thin. Could anyone advise as to whether these necks are just standard jazz C. I really want a G Lee or Marcus type or a 62RI. I think all of these necks are the 7.25 rad. I just wondered how a warmoth compares to the skinny stuff. I have looked at a lot of spec, but to be honest I am non the wiser. Wondered if anyone had any experience of them. cheers.

some lovely parts there ...

Great advice. I like the lightweight ideas. cheers.

I have this hunch / vision / gas / stupidity !!! to fit a skinny J neck to a P body. I have never done anything like this before. I am in no rush but would like to have a go perhaps after Xmas? These things may be cheaper and more readily available? I do find some of the warmouth necks very very sexy. I suppose a start could be to mod my standard jazz with one of these necks. It could always be used later on in another project? If anyone on the off cnance has a Geddy, Marcus, or '74 Reissue neck they want to get rid of let me know. I imagine I would use my original Fender tuners rather than leave an unused neck "loaded"

Very usefull reply Simon, cheers. How did you find your mighty mite? I see allparts and warmouth about too. The warmouth stuff just looked in another league, although I have no experience of any. Are they all US imports? Would my standard Fender tuners fit all three. cheers.

Hello all, I have some knowledge and have done some research but still unsure about a few things. In a nutshell I love the skinny '70's fender necks (as on my Marcus sig). I have a '97 standard jazz and have thought about picking up a similar neck for her. There look to be some crackers on warmouth, although pricey. Obviously I know there are 3 bolts and 4 bolts. I am a bit confused about the radius of the neck. My marcus is 7 1/4" and standard 10". I have no clue how these measurements are made but obviously my marcus is skinnier. Would the Marcus be the same as a Geddy or '75 reissue neck? Can these Jazz necks be bolted onto precision bodies without any major hassle???? Would my standard tuners fit any lic Fender necks. cheers. mr f.

I heard bits of various VH solo's (I think from memory) People can slate him but I thought it was incredible and really enjoyed it. I'd say he is a great classical guitar player too.

Thanks for the input. I really need to get off my backside and try a few different cabs is probably a short answer. I do like the idea of adding another ashdown 2x10 to my existing 4x10 and having the flexibility of 2 rigs. So the next question is. Will 6x10 ashdown cut the mustard in comparison with more pricey 4x10's. For example would the epifani/ zoot/ Dr Bass et al 4x10 really blow away 6x10 ashdown? I am a believer in you get what you pay for most of the time. Is this true with higher end 4x10, or would the difference with an ashdown 6x10 negligible??? cheers.

Had a lot of fun out of my Boss ME50 and it is a great workhorse, 100+ gigs and counting. Also makes a great guitar pedal. I've added a crybaby and a DHA fuzz and incorporated it into a board.

My bad.
