Hi all, I need to drill new holes in a neck heel, the neck has been previously used by myself, can anyone point me in the direction of a good filler to fill the old holes? Any help would be great Regards, Pete.

They do a replacement Squier plate [url="http://www.newoldsounds.com"]http://www.newoldsounds.com[/url] dunno if it fits all Squiers though.

[quote name='Nibody' timestamp='1323888026' post='1468345'] I suppose if you were a Luthier yourself it would be a good buy - cant complain for the price (when you consider what AllParts charge and what you get stung in customs fees if you buy from Mightymite or Warmoth direct) just a bit too much work for me. [/quote] Doh! I never noticed the full extent of the damage and I'm certainly not the bloke to put that right lol. Aye you can't knock his prices though.

I'd have it meself if I had something to put it on.

I can vouch for Mark too, I've bought from him before, he's a top bloke! His items arrive as described, very quickly and well packaged. I'm in the process of buying from him again as I type this. "If he's got it and you need it, buy it with confidence.

[quote name='Musky' timestamp='1323530015' post='1464257'] Common misconception - there were no Korean Silver Series Squiers. Some people think the 'Silver Series' refers to the decal colour, but it doesn't. The Silver Series was a specific range of MIJ Squiers made in the early nineties.[/quote] "I'll just get me coat!"

List a Korean silver series Jazz and use an Affinity ad to sell it's potential. Clueless.

I've had two from him (if you're on about Bluebass) and they are a bargain, fitted the first one onto a Squier Precision special and it was a dream to play.

I love Thunderbirds, I still have my 1998 Korean Epi and I'll never sell it, it's a beast! and it plays better than a Gibson I once borrowed. The only thing I found that the Gibson has over the Epi is the quality of pickups and a slightly more comfortable neck, another thing, if you are unfortunate enough to knock the headstock off an Epi (a common thing with Thunderbirds) you can replace the neck, whereas with the Gibson, it's curtains if you can't afford a good luthier. As Rayman says Gibson are over priced and their QC is not great at the moment, infact it's been dropping off for years. but then again so has Epi's especially since the Chinese got involved. I once saw an Arctic White which had been sent to a bloke that had the bridge so far out that the E string was actually off of the neck, how that got past QC is beyond belief. My advice is, if you go for an Epi try and pick up a Korean made one. Anyway Pete Way backed the Epi over Gibson, saying they sound a lot better. and he has had had numerous Thunderbirds over the years from Vintage ones through to the 90's re issues.

Thanks for your thoughts and pointers mate. Yeah you're right about me not wanting to do owt to the body. I'm not that light handed or the most patient, so I wouldn't want to overdo it on something that needs a steady hand.

I hope I've posted this is in the right place? I have a Mighty Mite Precision neck sat here which I want to use. I know it will fit a Squier body, but I'm finding it hard to get hold of one at the moment. Does anyone know if it would fit any of the following Precision replica bodies?
