Recommended Posts

This neck is modelled on the Moses made Steinberger 5 string neck fitted to my own self built basses.  The string clamp can accept double ball end and single ball end strings.  These necks have already been built and been imported into the UK.  No wait for shipping, no customs duty or shipping charges.

 

Features include:

Indian ebony fingerboard (6mm thick) with zero fret

24 levelled stainless steel frets

Double action truss rod (accessed through the string clamp end)

String clamp that accepts single ball end strings

Monocoque construction (a hollow shell) with resin core

Matt polyeurathane finish

Neck inserts and matching bolts supplied


Measurements
@ zero fret: 45.3mm
@ 12th fret: 59.8mm@ 24th fret: 67.5mm

Depths (front to back):
@ zero fret: 19.57mm
@ 12th fret: 22.2mm
@ 24th fret: 26.75mm
Neck heel: 75mm length allowed for.

Please note: The measurements above are indicative.  There might also be slight variations in appearance of the weave due to the hand made nature of this item.

Installation: We recommend asking a local luthier to drill holes for the inserts, the process should take them about ten minutes and no more than 30 minutes to install the neck into a custom body.

Hey Kiwi

 

A few questions (if i may) ?

 

do you have a profile dxf for these necks?

is the profile C/D/U ?

What the board/fret radius ?

what's the string spacing nut/bridge

Cheers

Hi Gizmo, I don't have one of the necks with me, they're in the UK.  But I'll do my best to answer your questions based on the Moses neck the Aurok necks are based on.  The radius is fairly flat so probably 16".  The profile is a shallow d shape, the string spacing at the bridge can be whatever you like, I'm not sure what the spacing is at the nut, I'll measure a Moses neck tonight as a guide, and get back to you with an edit to this post.

Hi Kiwi

 

Thank's for the reply, Im contemplating do my own 90-10% CF/Wood neck or i could just buying one to avoid the faff..(i have a cnc and access to a vacuum system)

 

Profile and Radius sound good but Bridge spacing is/would be directly related to the nut spacing,you want a consistent overhang so your strings aren't falling off the board at the 24th ;)

 

Cheers
