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

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!

It's a good neck, but it requires a bit of work to get it playable. It's a cheap neck, so you can't expect it to be perfect, but it doesn't take much to get it perfect. If you're not comfortble doing some fret work, don't buy it. That being said, if you're looking to learn and are willing to try it out, this is a good choice because it's really not in bad conditon (I've come across brand new guitars with necks and frets in trully awful condition) and you're not losing a huge amount of money if you completely screw it up. At this price, it does make for a very good neck to practice on and get proficient on neck work. Getting it playable is really not a big job, it only takes an hour or two, and it's not as difficult as you might think, so don't be put off by it. The trick to fret work is simple: take your time, go slow, and go carefully. Make sure your neck is as straight as you can get it before you start, otherwise you're only going to make it worse, so don't be afraid of your truss rod. You'll need a Sharpie, a straight edge, a fret rocker, a sanding block, a crowning file, and some 0000 steel wool. There are some excellent tutorial videos on YouTube covering all aspects of neck work, so watch a few before you dive in. The neck had a lot of high frets, so the whole neck needed the frets levelling, crowned and dressed. The frets did not need bevelling, which was a nice surprise for a neck in this price range. Once the fret work was done and it was installed on the guitar, it only needed a little conditioning with some lemon oil and adjusting of the truss rod and it played beautifully.

very well made

Little if no truss adjustment, high and low frets all over the place, probably to be expected for the price, will try a frett dress...

This product turned up a day earlier unexpected. The item was very well packaged and no damage at all. The item is exactly what what I was looking for and was expecting as everything that was mentioned in in the advert for it will be buying again.

The first neck I ordered was returned due to damage to the headstock. The 2nd neck is undamaged but has an obvious joint in the maple and a couple of highly visible knots. There’s also a couple of frets which haven’t been pressed in sufficiently. If you buy one of these you may be lucky or you may be looking at some rework to get something useable.

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

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!

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