heres some pics of the washburn neck i want to use cuz its just been sitting around and the iceman is a washburn as well. I need advice on how to fix it cuz it is beat up.
u might be able to tell from the pics but the 15-21 frets were scalloped a while ago and i dont kno wut to use to polish/refinish them.
also the nut seems to hav gone missing and was wondering if there was anything i could make it out of that would be cool.

im having a lot of trouble with the neck cuz its a set neck and the pocket is really low. i cant find any good set necks and chances are im not going to make a neck cuz i have no idea how and i probably dont have the tools. i hav an old washburn neck but its really beat up under the fretboard like someone took a hand saw to it so the heel of it isnt level and its not even tall enough for the pocket.
Hello what type of wood is it ? $60 is good price if it is alder, ash etci think its an alder top and some sort of rosewood on the back(sorry i dont hav a pic). i think i might hav gotten it cheap cuz lots of it just doesnt seem right like the neck pocket and the bridge/tunomatic slots are very shallow and its a pretty thin body. i will probably need to fill the toggle switch cavity as well because it is extremely small and i found a cheap switch that will fit but makes it very hard to feed wires in and out of it.
I like the design but for some odd reason to me it looks as if someone Glued a jig on to the body!!METAL MATT!!
wut do u mean a jig????? by a different wood on top, yes, because its not a veneer like thing.

i love the carve on the top of the body and i like the square horn cuz it keeps it from being a tele replica and i was wondering if u decided to keep that strip of wood down the middle

i found this body on ebay for like $60, and i bought it cuz i thought it was a steal but i just hav no idea what to do to it. ill probably fill the neck pocket and put in a dimarzio super distortion but i think i would need to will pot hole then also???? i dont kno much about electronics so i think that a single humbucker single volume would work nicely but i cant find a neck that will work properly.

if u cant get the finish u want from just the swirl mark remover try using the 3m perfect it rubbing compound on top of it
