Re: MJT
Just looked at the MJT website. Some changes there in the way they supply necks. Might make it easier to just source that part directly from Warmoth or AllParts (I've a Tele build underway).

Re: MJT
Nah, the neck part is still easy. The main reason you'd buy from MJT is the finish though. Not going to get that kind of thing from Warmoth or Allparts.Molly wrote:Just looked at the MJT website.

Musikraft for necks - the absolute best there is.

59 Les Paul. It's very close to the R9.
Musikraft aren't cheap but you really do get a better product. Necks make or break an otherwise good partso guitar.

Re: MJT
I was just going through the options on their website. I can really run the bill up! Roasted maple, massive Tele neck with huge frets, yada yada. And landed it'll still bring my build in at around $1,200 by the time I've bought pickups (plus final set-up). Using a AVRI '52 body. Could be a pretty cool outcome.GrantB wrote:Musikraft for necks - the absolute best there is.

Re: MJT
My JM neck landed was around $600. No regrets.

Re: MJT
I hate you guys. Now I'm thinking of a Musikraft/MJT L series Strat build......

Re: MJT
I've been looking at tele bodies for about a week.
Anyone got one they want to sell to me for fuck all? Unfinished ideal.
