Daniel Sorbera Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 The Lacquer Is In Good Condition On The Neck The Face Of The Headstock Appears To Have A Spot That's Been Sanded Is there something wrong with this guy or what? Why doesn't he just scallop it down to the back of the neck Quote
Batfink Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 Not so much "scalloped" as "scalped" Jem Quote
Sugaree23663 Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 I saw one of those on e-bay this past summer. The seller said a neck like that would improve your fingering and speed. No one believed him this summer 'cause it never sold... Quote
MidnightLamp Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Posted December 21, 2005 I'm still reeling from that one...but don't blink too fast...here's the....MATCHING BODY!!!! http://tinyurl.com/9vy2z Cheers, Nish Quote
stiggz Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 it looks like some1 painted an the body gold screwed up,painted it red, screwed that up, then painted it brown (only god knows why), then that screwed up (maybe the guy wouldnt take the hint)so he painted it black, stuffed that up too so finally he painted it turquoise, but then decided to start over, and got halfway through sanding it and sold it on ebay.... well attempted to. luke Quote
frank falbo Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 You could put charcoal in there and cook a steak on that fretboard. Which would be fitting because that neck needs to be BBQ'd. How much more scalloped could that neck be? None more scalloped. Um, hey were you able to clean all that truss rod out of your files and sandpaper? How did that go? How many vacuum bags did you go through cleaning up the wood shavings? Two? Maybe three? Sorry I can't help it. He's probably a nice guy. I shouldn't be making jok-hey did you build a whole other neck with the shavings? Quote
soapbarstrat Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 Man, and I thought this one I did 11 years ago was/is barbaric : http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v398/soa...t/scallops3.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v398/soa...t/scallops5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v398/soa...t/scallops6.jpg Because I did the bulk work of the scalloping with this : http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v398/soa...lops_sander.jpg Seemed the best option at the time for scalloping phenolic (did two of those boards. Never scalloped real wood) Quote
Setch Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 Of course, it could be worse... Ouch! Quote
MidnightLamp Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Posted December 21, 2005 The funniest thing is that all those necks scare me, because I have thin long fingers, and when playing on most scalloped necks, my fingers fall right past the strings sometimes...I might lose them on that first neck. As for the body....what wood is that?!? it looks like cheap particle board that my dresser is made of! Further more...."It's Color Is A Very Unusual Turquoise Gold/Gray/Black/Brown/Red Combination That Appear To Be The Colors In A Natural Piece Of Turquoise....Which Also Has Silver Sparkle In It."

TenderSurrender Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 Looks to me like they unleashed the fury on that one. Ahem. Wonder if the guy who made this neck is off to go write an album about it now ~~ TS ~~ Quote
Jon Posted December 24, 2005 Report Posted December 24, 2005 Of course, it could be worse... Ouch! ← I'm melting, melting! Quote
scottyd Posted December 26, 2005 Report Posted December 26, 2005 Of course, it could be worse... Ouch! ← WOW!!!! looks like it was done with a chainsaw! Quote
