Mex Classic 50's Strat for sale.  When bought it needed a refret so I pulled the frets with the intention of having a go.........never got round to it, lol.  But I did buy a non Fender replacement neck.  It has a flatter radius and medium jumbo frets, and its quite chunky.  It needs a setup but its all there.  Its in excellent condition and has been fitted with Tonerider Pure Vintage pups.  No case so buyer will have to collect.  £160.




No Darling....I've had that ages.

    Hmmm,

    Idly toying with an idea.

    Mate of mine is looking for a neck & a set of pickups to put together with a recently acquired GuitarBuild Strat body, wonder of he'd be interested in the replacement neck & Toneriders, maybe sell on the body & trem & have a stab at refretting the Fender neck for my own Guitarbuild body...

    Is there much wood missing from the Fender neck where you've pulled the frets ?

  • Hi DrBob, no mate they came out very cleanly.  Looks pretty tidy to me.  If you're local you'd be welcome to come over and take a look.

    Regrettably I'm not local enough to come by for a look, it's always good to get these things in your hands for a look isn't it ?

    So, I've spoken to my mate and he may be interested, I do (as is the way with these things) have a couple more questions if you don't mind though ?

    Have you got any intel as to what brand/where you sourced the replacement neck from ?
    And also I know you say that the neck 'needs setup, but is all there' have you done or had done any setup of fret dress work on the neck since having installed it on the guitar.
    Just trying to gauge how much more there is to be done to the neck to get the most out of it.

    Cheers

    Rob

    No problem Rob.

    The neck is unbranded I'm afraid.  Nice flaming in the maple though.

    No fret dress required they're fine (and level).  The setup is the nut.  It needs lowering a touch as it is a little high.....I'd probably change for bone or the like as it is the one that came fitted.  Hope this helps.
