boundsteelblues Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I came into these 3 unfinished Gibson necks. I'm not sure which model they are for. I'd appreciate any feedback on what needs to be done to them next. Notice the binding above the fret ends. I've not seen that in building information before. What about the tendon type? Thanks for the input. Side View Necks Tendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundsteelblues Posted November 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I forgot the headstock shot. Headstock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 well, it looks like an sg style headstock, but i dont think those are "gibson" necks, since im not aware of any models that have dots on sg's and the crown on it. les pauls have the diamonds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WezV Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 possibly dot 335 necks, most likely 59 reissues, the truss rod looks right (the usual thing thats wrong on the fakes) and the binding looks right although obviously not quite finished, it just needs shaping around the fret ends and scraping level with the fretboard... the tenon is also correct for a modern 335 and the inlays are all correct for a 59 re-issue here is a post 2000 335 i have in at the moment (62 re-issue with block markers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WezV Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 it might not be wise to say how you got them on a public forum, gibson might not be happy about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
