Members BlackHatHunter Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 It'll be interested to hear from those who bought in terms of quality and all that jazz... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Radiohead, lol Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 It'll be interested to hear from those who bought in terms of quality and all that jazz... I'll be ordering the rest of the parts soon, so I should have a complete 'GFS-o-caster' done in a few weeks - I'll post a good review of everything then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guitarfetish Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 Quality?? Some of these are just plain great quality- great light woods, awesome finish quality- Some are just Ok. Nothing's flat-out crap- even the $20 plywood stuff is OK. Some of these are off of $500 guitars so they're pretty good, I hope our descriptions give you some idea of what to expect- Then again you buy a neck and body combined for $60- you probably know it won't be a US Custom Shop piece...

Members ArKay Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 Since you don't sell them as packages measurements would be nice. If I were to buy a neck I would like to make sure that it fits the body I may have lying around. Same goes for the neck pockets of the bodies.

Members Sweetbabyjezuz Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 It'd be nice if the 1/2 that didn't say what wood they're made of did. Then again that probably means it's not good wood heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members animl Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 I had the LP/MM Poplar body & a neck in my cart. I stopped to think if I wanted to spend $25 on shipping for ~$60 in parts - Body sold out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Promit Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 Jay, honest question -- are you guys taking any profit at all off this stuff? Or are you betting that they'll drive sales of other GFS parts and making the money there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Promit Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 I figure it can't hurt to ask. They're comfortably under the going rates on eBay for used and slightly damaged necks, which is impressively cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MattSkibaIsGOD Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 goddamnit. I wish i was a headstock whore so I could order one of those strat necks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitarfetish Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 Profit?? Who Needs Profit?? Honestly we're selling many of these below what we paid, some for a few bucks more- Should be a wash whenwe're done- But yeah I hope guys buy their pickups and stuff from us- And if this whole ordeal turns out to be a sucess on the parts/pickups side we'll have a stable of regular, inventoried necks and bodies at cheap prices.

Members Funderbunk Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 Dammit, I bought another.... Rear mounted pickups? Recessed jack area? I'm there. (probably refinish it, or at least try to eliminate the OCC logo...) EDIT: Hey Jay, I see you're here so I'll ask - any idea what neck your workers used for their builds of this body?

Members Funderbunk Posted May 2, 2007 Members Share Posted May 2, 2007 I don't like flames on guitars... hmmm... wait a minute... congrats Yeah, the flames and OCC logo were almost enough to make me resist... I'm pretty sure they'll have to go. But the other features are pretty dang slick, so I was willing to grab it for the "projects that'll need a bit more work" parts pile.
