I agree that something else is going on here. In 35 years, I've never seen a little tuner screw crack a hard maple neck without it's head snapping off first...especially TWO of them on the same headstock. Now I'm a little curious (cautious?) about getting a roasted maple neck. And, I want to...

It's a MIM Wolfgang Special Stealth that I got used off Craigslist. I think it was only played twice... and looks brand new. (Still had all the protective plastic and original strings). I won't say what I ended up paying for it, because it would just upset the Wolfgang fans. Let's just say I'm...

I can now. I didn't have the guitar yet when I started this thread. :) With that said... Now that I've had it in my hands, plugged into my own rig and have played it a while, I don't think I'm going touch it. This guitar is just surprisingly fantastic and I like it better every time I play it...

lol

That's good to know. I played my first Floyd back in '85, then got spoiled to a Steinberger TransTrem in the early 90's and played it exclusively (for trems) for about 20 years. Now getting into a guitar with a Floyd again.  :) I've thought a few times over the years about a Floyd with a more...

Yeah... was being a bit facetious.  But, I wouldn't mind a 24-3/4 bolt-on conversion neck with the Wolfgang's smaller body. :) I've actually thought about trying the roller nut on my next strat build. I always use locking tuners (usually Sperzel), and lately the Tusq nuts on bright sounding...

And these Gibson necks will fit on the Wolfgang I asked about?  :) I could live with that, if they would except an R2 nut.

And it's just my nature to immediately take apart anything I buy and figure out how I can (hopefully) improve it. Being a naturally addicted tinkerer gets expensive sometimes... but I usually end up with something I like better.  :)

There are some necks for sale floating around, so I'm sure it has "some" value, for people needing a factory replacement. And I'd like to be able to bolt it back to factory(ish) form if I ever decided to sell it. I just want to spec my own neck, so that it's exactly what I want. It isn't bad at...

Yeah... I've seen that. I picked up a Wolfgang standard online after playing some at the local GC. Really like the guitar, but not a big fan of the neck. I would rather build my own custom neck (wood, profile...maybe gibson conversion)...  if it's not completely whack getting one to bolt up. I...

Has anyone fitted a Warmoth neck to an EVH (Fender) Wolfgang? I'm wondering how close the Wolfgang pocket is to a standard Fender pocket, and hard it would be to get a Warmy neck to bolt up
