If Carlsberg aged necks they 'probably' wouldn't do this

Crickey moses this is awful! I can appreciate why he's selling the body and neck seperate... if this does belong to a BCer please tell me you didn't 'assist' the aging process!

Gawd that's terrible. I've owned dozens of pre-CBS Fenders over the years and NONE of them have aged like that.

Ah, but the seller's in Coalville. Lots of coal there. Hence the 'coaly' nature of the neck wear. Well known occurrence in that part of the world. They call it 'Neck Blacking', though it comes out a sort of dark grey.

Astonished you didn't know that, man of your calibre. Quite shocking, really.

Oh dear, I feel thoroughly ashamed now that you've pointed that out.

My great aunt, Lady Witherington-Titsworthy will be spinning in her urn at the very thought.

I must promise to do more research at the Institute.

Toodle pip.
