I have no idea... seems like the musikraft neck i gotten is not straight as i took a ruler to measure the sides of the neck heel... its middle section is caved out by abit.... Is the neck i describe normal? Am kinda interested in warmoth too but i have no idea if its a dead fit on these with...

How many of the warmoth guys faces this problem with warmoth necks ?

@Mayfly... thanks for input.... I gotten this neck not predrilled... i went thru a "rush" job in anyway i have drilled in the mounting holes for my neck.... But i can always plug the mounting holes with epoxy resin and redrill the neck again if i could correct the "neck-body" gap? I haven...

Its a musikraft neck and an MJT body... both are fitting as i try matching up at the tip of the heel base of the neck against the body neck cut, it matches very very well but as i starts to slide in the neck it seems like the neck tends to slide moving away from the pocket's heel butt till it...

Thanks guys for the response... its hard to take a shot of a pic with the neck fully in... and i will eleborate where the gap lies with the neck not fully in yet... hope you guys could getta better glimpse of what i am trying to say... The pic shown where the exact 1mm gap lies marked out in...

Dear all.... is my first diy.. i wonder how many of you guys experienced this as i cant get my strat licensed fender neck to sit onto the fitting neck pocket on its heep butt....it leaves a small 1mm gap no matter how i sand the sides of the neck pocket... is this really a matter to have the...

Thanks for you guys help and honest opinions.... well i may figure out to do a soloist then or else just do a modern strat with 22 frets.... In anycase my interest be one all roasted body and neck thou. Since i gotta Fender FSR in all roasted wood it just feel and plays so well... i couldent...

Well... have checked what you have mentioned but i guess the 7/8 is for smaller scale length thou.... I have no idea if warmoth could help route a modern strat body a tad deeper on its lower horn cutaway if i were to order one with a 24 fret neck ?

No... i have too many soloist, i would wanna getta classic look thicker on the body and the rounder horn less sleak looking. I heard 7/8 strat has a deeper lower cutaways ? But i hear the neck pocket only suits a type of neck thou? I have to take a look at the warmoth site again...

Dear DIYers, I been intrigued by a charvel build type clone ie like a guthrie govan style or any 24 fret neck that can fit in nicely with a modern strat type body with full easy access at the lower horn cutaway... I have browsed thru this forum having seen many completed projects with 24...

Howdy guys and all diyers.... just ever wonder has anybody got into ordering necks from true temperment frets? They offer necks thats available in already installed TT frets... but just wonder how nice are those necks and fretboards? I ever think of ordering a TT neck and have it assembled...

Thanks for your full description !! as is still very vague as told because most guitars ended up with maple neck and anyother types of body woods plus fretboard and the lovely tops ... perhaps pickups would spill over a much clearer sense and the way i pick the strings take care !!!

Thanks alot for the clarification guys !!! because of my previous experience with my jackson sl2h was pretty much dissapointed sorry to say that if there are any jackson fans out here... thou i like every details of jackson's high quality made guitar but when i mature in tone i thought this is...
