Kiwi Posted Saturday at 13:36 Posted Saturday at 13:36 Modelled on the Classic 5 neck on my own bass. Can do either a narrower nut version (borrowing from a very comfortable Steinberger 5 string neck) or original flavour depending on interest. I'll post measurements and spec below tomorrow as it's a bit late here. But @Woodinblack and @crazycloud indicated interest. I'll take up an order slot myself if four deposits are recieved. Quote
tauzero Posted Saturday at 15:52 Posted Saturday at 15:52 Do you know how the neck profile compares with a SUB Ray5? Quote
Woodinblack Posted Saturday at 18:04 Posted Saturday at 18:04 Certainly interested on the narrowest nut that people are happy to go for Quote

Nut width and depth, width and depth at 12th fret and at the heel plus heel length? I suspect there might be differences to discourage neck swapping between models but I can compare your measurements (if you have them) to my bass and we can both take a view. Quote

I'll sort out the measurements. 1 Quote

Heel thickness c 27.8mm. OK, do you have neck pocket length? My Classic 5 is: Nut width: 44.1mm Neck depth at nut: 20.5mm 12th fret width: 60.9mm Neck depth at 12th fret: 23.8mm Heel thickness: 28.3mm Width at 21st fret: 69mm <- this might be incompatible with your SUB5 neck if it has a 22 fret neck heel. Neck pocket length: 72.5mm FWIW the Steinberger 5 string neck for comparison is: Nut width: 44.1mm Neck depth at nut: 19.3mm 12th fret width: 60.4mm Neck depth at 12th fret: 22mm Heel thickness: 26.6mm Width at 24th fret: 69.1mm Neck pocket length: 77.5mm (estimated) Quote
