    Thankyou all for the advice and help The Shape does fit in this headstock for some reason maybe because its not a real strat neck But yes i have a USA customshop 1960 masterbuilt strat, and i know wat your talking about with the angle and shape The vai necks are a lot thinner for shredding so im thinking i might be able to get away with shaving it down a little
  10. incunic
    I have a 22 fret maple strat shape neck but i want to convert it 2 a jackson shaped headstock and shave the neck to be like a vai wizard neck is this possible?

  12. incunic
    Hey i was thinking of buying these templates: http://www.guitarbuildingtemplates.com/58Explorer.htm But im not sure about the neck joint because if i buy a jackson neck, what do i do then? HELP
  13. incunic
    Well im just about to leave and buy some wood now! probably some mahogony or ash or rosewood for the body and i was going 2 use templates or proper measurements from the gibson site
  14. incunic

  15. incunic

    http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Jackson-Guitar-NEC...1QQcmdZViewItem how bout that neck? any other problems i should watch out for? and can you help me with anything else?
  18. incunic
    Those people who are selling those fretboards are very sneaky they say "check my store for inlays to fit this fingerboard" and the inlays cost $20 but what i thought was a good idea is: if you buy a jackson neck then u can build the body and make the neck joint to the right specs. of the neck
  19. incunic
    well i dont have "alot" of money so i dont want to spend like 300 on just the neck if u get my drift but i dont mind spending 500-700 on the whole guitar but these pre-made fingerboards do they come with the inlays?
  20. incunic
    Im most likey go for a bolt on or set but probably a bolt on Do u think those pre-made fretboards are worth getting? Thanks again
  21. incunic
    yeah thanks a heap for that i will most likely go for a ash, mahogony or rosewood body but im still uncertain about the neck i want it to be a very good guitar cosmetic and playability wise and im a very precise guy lol
  22. incunic
    Thanks a heap man..... i really appreciate it. i hope to get started in 3 days i am going to go buy a a slab or 2 of mahogony or ash at one of the timber places in my town anything i should b weary of?
  23. incunic
    Um the neck i want looks like this: with this body: But i dont know what wood to use for the body either because this will be my first build
  24. incunic
    well i want it to be exactly like a jackson neck, with the sharktooth inlay, and i dont really want to ruin it if im going 2 build it, so thats why i was thinking of buying a jackson neck
  25. incunic
    Hi ive been really reading into guitar making and tosing up between buying a pre-made explorer body from warmoth and making one myself But i think it would be really fun and a good experience to make 1 i want to put a jackson styled neck on it with the sharktooth inlays but i dont want to screw the neck up and i dont know what wood to use, and its all really expensive and i would really appreciate all help Thanks nic WE DONT NEED THE KEY, WE'LL BREAK IN!!!!!!!
