FS - maple neck Explorer

[drew_half_empty]

So what we have here is a rando Rondo explorer body from I'm guessing the 80's with a warmoth neck. Neck is all maple, '59 contour, 12" radius, MJ frets, bone nut, extremely light finish. Pickups are '59/brobucker. Also has one of those awesome adjustable roller bridges on it.

I just finished this not too long ago, but I'm not really gellin with it. I dunno what it is--it has great sustain, feels nice and chunky, but I dunno, just doesn't "do it" for me. I guess what it comes down to is i'd rather have another hollowbody, or another strat.

Here's pics, more available on request. make an offer.

Come to f-in practice haha



Ok so I may have a potential buyer for the neck, so if someone else wants the body and I part it out for prices on everything I'll do

'59n - $50
Brobucker - $110
Body - $80
control plate/switch/knobs/pots/ jack plate if you want it - $20
Schaller tuners - $30
Bridge - $40
aaaand assuming dude flakes out on the neck, $200 seems about fair, i think it was over 300 from warmoth and then to get the bone nut & stain i think it ended up being closer to 4


Or lets say $450 for the whole thing, $350 without pickups

Re: FS - maple neck Explorer

This thing is cool, it's setup and put together really well. I'd hate to see it leave town, if I had the money it would be mine, someone is gonna love this thing.

Bump

Re: FS - maple neck Explorer

Final bump before it gets advertised elsewhere. Someone hurry up and buy this thing, the neck and bridge alone are worth what I'm asking

Re: FS - maple neck Explorer

How much for just the neck?

 

[drew_half_empty]

Re: FS - maple neck Explorer
