ProfDrum Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 What's guy doing to join the neck there? Looks like a bolt on with a load of putty slapped around it, hiding the bolt holes? Quote
WezV Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 seems you are right.. the people on youtube seem to like it though so it must be good edit: check out his 'how this fender worth' video Quote
ProfDrum Posted January 4, 2008 Author Report Posted January 4, 2008 Something about that fender doesnt sit right with me at all, like he got a MIM and played with fire to make it look aged and give it a back story. He's tagged it with "vintage pickups" too, which makes me thing he's trying to sell it off as all original parts, but if it caught fire that badly it would have been a melted mess. Maybe I'm just a mistrusting sod though Quote
WezV Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 nah - i think you are spot on. it looks to me that they started doing a relic - got bored and burnt the hell out of it. i actually think the burning effect could look cool. But then in the comments he says the serial number got burnt off in a fire... erm - only if he aimed the blowtorch at it!! of course he could actually be trying to find out what its worth (not much) and not trying to con anyone... maybe the language barrier is an issue Quote

I think instead of bolting on the neck ,he just glued it on .....his idea of a neck thru....paint hides alot of stuff. Quote
