Members Belva Posted March 2, 2011 Members Share Posted March 2, 2011 http://www.bestguitarparts.com/Anybody get a neck from this company? I was looking at the price for a custom neck and my price, unsanded. is $135 + tax & shipping.For a made to order neck, that's cheap!!! I'm just trying to determine if the price means a piece of junque.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members webwarmiller Posted March 2, 2011 Members Share Posted March 2, 2011 Wish I could help because I'm interested as well.....especially because I've seen SOME beautiful wood on occasion at my local Rockler and they will build using the customer's wood for a small discount.

Members Belva Posted March 2, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 2, 2011 I may have to bite the bullet and try one. The cost for a nearly identical neck from USACG, of which I have two, is a Ben more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was interested as well but I want a wider neck for my large hands and the widest they have is 1 3/4". I think Warmoth is the best place for custom necks and guitars as they have a much wider selection but the price is a bit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I could never get any answers from them. And they charge xtra for a straight radius? WTF!?! Tommy @ USACG is stellar when it comes to customer service. But now that I know what I prefer, neck wise, I need to save money for other luxuries. Like sleeping indoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleeping indoors is very appealing, especially if you're north of the Mason/Dixon Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members notjonahbutnoah Posted March 3, 2011 Members Share Posted March 3, 2011 Well, if they have a decent return service, what's to lose? Try em out! I must say that Warmoth makes simply ridiculous necks. They're just amazing. Also, I'm currently doing a build/assembly and working with a WD Music neck and it's spectacular. Good luck on your quest!

Members Belva Posted March 3, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 3, 2011 Good luck on your quest! Gonna be a while. I gots this bad disease called myfundsarelow. I'm envisioning a black limba strat with P90's, rear control route, recessed TOM and no p/g. I'm keeping my eyes open for a hunk of limba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members everlight44 Posted March 3, 2011 Members Share Posted March 3, 2011 Carvin necks aren't too much more expensive and I have had good luck with mine. Warmoth - as previously mentioned - makes good stuff too. http://www.carvinguitars.com/necks/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
