Jag Stang

[ripsrv]

hey fellas, what neck does the jag stang use? is it the fender mustang neck? also is it possible to put a strat neck onto one. what would be the problem with it if not? if i modified it to fit into the body well and have a good action height would the neck scales be too weird to maintain a good intunation? thanks for any comments, im just planing out my next project.

The Jag-Stang uses a Jag-Stang neck. It's a short-scale instrument (24" scale) so a Strat neck will not work on it. You could probably bolt a Strat neck onto it, but you'd have to move the bridge back for it to intonate correctly.

thanks you for your reply. will it considerably change the tone if i were to move the bringe back? and also i saw a homemade one on ebay with a {fender music master neck} what is that. i have never heard of this neck. is it a short scale neck like the jag/mustang's? thanks and sorry for my ignorance

I'm sure it will change the tone if you lengthen the scale length. If you have a body but want a different neck on it, Warmoth does make a 24" scale neck, as well as Jagstang bodies.

The Musicmaster and Duosonic were the predecessors of the Mustang. They came with 22.5" and 24" scales. You can learn more than you ever wanted to about Musicmasters/Duosonics here.

The Duosonic II is one of my favorite guitars of all time.
