Electric Guitar Neck Maple Head Rosewood Fretboard 24 Fret for IBZ Parts Replacement Black

I'm a pro guitar tech and necks can be hit or miss. I've had $200 necks that were duds. All necks are cut on CNC machines for greater accuracy. This neck is quite good with medium size frets and only one high fret which I tapped back down. The edges were cut properly with no sharp ends - this happens when climate changes cause the wood to contract leaving the fret ends sticking out. Easy to file and not an issue on most fretboards that are bound. This one is not. Attempting to attach a replacement neck will always require small tweaks. I had to Dremel and bit off the end where the neck attaches at the body to meet the 25 1/2" scale. Other than that, no issues. Plays very well with decent action and no fretting out on bends. I did some some small truss rod adjustments. I feel this neck came from a good batch - the frets were clean and the width is similar to an Ibanez with a thin "D" shape. The tuning holes were perfect size as my replacement tuners fit right in. The nut came off in the box but was cut properly and easy to attach with a tiny bit of glue. Little things, but experience helps with these things. Rock on!

The neck feels good to play and has a nice thin profile that works well for my smaller hands. It looks really nice and worked great for my custom build. The only issue I had is that the 10mm holes for the tuning machines were 10mm before they applied the finish to the headstock, which is pretty thick. Luckily I had a rotary tool to quickly sand the finish out from the inside of the holes so that my tuners would fit. You could do the same with a dowel and sandpaper or a round file. Otherwise I think I would give it 5 stars. I also removed and sanded down the nut for a lower action, which is a personal preference. Overall, I'm really happy with it. It's a unique look in terms of what you can find in affordable DIY guitar necks and the quality, I think, is pretty high for this price range. I would definitely buy it again - I wish I could find it in different fret board colors.

Really nice , worth the price . Has an adjustable truss rod and really good paint finish . Brought my garbage can guitar back to life .

Inexpensive neck. Here is some information not included in the description when I bought the neck: -Fretboard radius is 12" -Heel width is 2.201" (roughly 55.9mm) -Nut width: 1.650" (roughly 41.9mm) -Heel to nut distance is 19.3125" (19-5/16" or roughly 490.53mm) -Truss rod socket uses a standard 4mm allen key Main material appears to be maple, but the fretboard is definitely not rosewood. It looks like it has just been stained to look like rosewood, but that's not necessarily a deal breaker. Frets are not properly seated and all frets will require seating. I found gaps of 0.006" to 0.010" with feeler gauges under the center of the frets throughout the neck. It also looks like whomever beveled the frets got a little carried away and beveled the fretboard, but didn't do the whole thing, and it stops halfway up between the nut and first fret. Finish on headstock is pretty clean, but the tuner holes have lots of finish crud in them. Be careful cleaning out the tuner holes because I chipped the finish off of the headstock trying to clean them out. The truss rod also worries me a little. It appears to only flex to achieve an front-bow, and doesn't appear to make a back-bow, which is weird. It just spins freely when going in the back bow direction when fully loosened. If anything, it might be just unthreading from the rod. EDIT: I made a typo, neck heel is 2.201", not 2.021"

It worked perfectly for my project

Frets are sharp on both side where they crowned them and left them sharp 1st fret & 12th fret lifted have to glue and press it back on the board, now i have to file all the edges of the frets not happy about the craftsmanship. Won’t be buying any more from this company

Nice finish. Smooth frets. Straight. So far I'm happy.

Pretty good neck, not an exact copy but it’s good project piece to build with. I would check for unlevel fret areas and verify the not slots are right, so if you have the tools and the knowhow it’s not bad as a platform to refine. Don’t know why the dot inlays are orange… but oh well… I’m building a project guitar and not too critical, it will do the job.

Der Hals macht einen sehr guten Eindruck. Er fühlt sich wertig an, die Bundstäbe sind gut abgerundet und er passt auch FAST (ich muss dann noch etwas feilen) als Ersatzhals für die LTD Mh-50nt (ESP LTD will oder kann keinen Hals liefern). Leider ist bei diesem Hals, den ich bekommen habe, die Verleimung am Hals nicht so gut geglückt. Der Hals geht zurück und ich versuche es nochmal. Update: Der Gitarrenhals wurde neu geliefert. Diesmal ist er fast perfekt. Der Übergang an der Verleimung von Hals zur Kopfplatte war spürbar. Etwas feines Schmirgelpapier hat das Problem beseitigt. Der Hals passte von der Länge her leider nicht perfekt zur ESP LTD (ist ja auch eigentlich ein Hals im Ibanez Stil). Ich musste die Ferse des Halses ein kleines Stück kürzen und in die leicht gerundete Form feilen. Jetzt passt der Hals ganz gut. Die Gitarre ist perfekt oktavrein. An der Saitenlage muss ich jetzt noch etwas arbeiten, aber das ist ja Einstellungssache.

Bon matériaux mais fabrication plutôt bâclé, et irrattrapable. Des fausses notes a foison, le sillet collé tordu avec bavure, repères pas axés, frettes limé à-peu-près. Je déconseille. Merci de m'avoir lu ^^

Bought this neck for my first guitarbuild, it was pretty straight and works but had to hammer in some of the frets and file

For the price I can't fault it. Is it perfect? Not exactly, but it's better than ok. With a little bit of work, you can have a really sweet neck for very little outlay. I bought this as a cheap project, as I'd got most of the parts already. Plan was to build a HSH 24 fret strat. Why? Just because 😋 It was an interesting project and I learnt a lot as I went along from YouTube videos, I also ended up with probably the best guitar I've ever owned. On opening the box I was stunned by the quality of this neck, so smooth as standard, nice and thin...thinner than any strat neck I've played. It's true to say the frets required attention, but well worth the effort. I'd never pay to have someone setup my guitar, it's part of it for me, I like to tinker. So this has been perfect for me. Had to cut a little off the heel to get the 25.5 scale length to coincide with the bridge, also had to create a bespoke pickguard, that wasn't easy with my tools, but got there. Perfect? Hell no!! More than adequate? Hell yeah!! For around £250 I've got a 24 fret HSH strat with a vega trem installed, all thanks to Amazon and suppliers like Alnicov😊👍 A few little tweaks and definitely make another pickguard, thats just a rough template 😊 work in progress 🤭 I'm loving it!

Muy buena calidad/precio Utilizado en un proyecto tipo Ibanez y hace muy bien su función. Recomendadísimo
