Members vintage clubber Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 Hopefully it will work out like the maple/rosewood SX neck I used on the Bride of Frankentele and will fit nice and snug in the GFS body since the St Blues neck didn't ...

Members Muddslide Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 Love the SX necks. I prefer them to almost anything Fender or Squier has on offer the past decade and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sxyryan Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 The only beef with the SX neck on my strat was the finish was realllly thick. And the frets were gigantic. The neck profile however, was awesome. I needed to do a fret level out of the box. It was a really sweet neck after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vintage clubber Posted January 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 neck arrived today. fits much better in that GFS body than the St Blues neck did. Decided to use the black pickguard from my CV rather than the white pearloid one to give it a custom '52 motif... So here's the specs: pick up set from my CV Tele wired for 4 way switching Wilkinson compensated 3 saddle bridge - string through Electrosocket jack wiring Wilkinson vintage style tuners Graph Tech String tree Tusq nut 250K pots with treble bleed circuit on volume pot and RS Guitarworks .047 mfd cap pics to follow as I start assembling...

The sx tele I had sure did. won't know until I assemble it and see how she sets up. At first glace it looks fine though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
