Birdseye Maple and BRW Strat neck (sold)

[oldmanatc]

I purchased a warmoth strat neck off another member here a few years ago. Project never got started. Its a vintage modern with compound radius 1.699" nut width and 11/32" tuner holes. Finished Birdseye Maple with Brazilian Rosewood Fretboard.  I'm asking $200 via paypal OBO. Only shipping to Continental U.S.

edit: After some help from the members who've posted in this thread, I'll leave my original description, but the neck for sale is a Warmoth Pro Birdseye Maple with BRW fretboard. It has the Compound 10-16" radius, 1.699" nut width, and 6105 stainless frets. Tuner holes are 11/32."

I'm a little surprised, no one's even PM'ed me an offer. The neck has never been used, its in the same condition as when I bought it (which was like new).  I know I don't have a high post count, but my project never got off the ground.

Keep your head up. The Brazilian Rosewood will net you a sale in due time. It hasn't even been 24 hours yet.

Thanks for the encouragement. I guess compared to other forums I've sold things on, this is relatively low traffic place.

What frets are installed on it?

 

[oldmanatc]

I believe its 6105, if not its 6150 and I believe they are stainless.

You know, I don't see a truss rod adjuster at the headstock, nor a skunk stripe. So I'm not so sure this is a Vintage Modern. Maybe a Total Vintage? There's bound to be a trussrod adjuster at the bottom of the heel. Is there anything on the side near the heel?

 

[Cagey]

I believe its 6105, if not its 6150 and I believe they are stainless.

There should be a handwritten mark on the heel that says SS6105 or SS6150 if they're stainless. Otherwise, it'll just say 6105 or 6150.

Sorry if I got the model wrong, it was unintentional, I thought vintage modern was what I purchased. Adjustment is on side of heel.

6015? Is that a typo? Warmoth doesn't offer that according to this chart, and a more thorough chart of fret size designations doesn't list it, either.

 

[oldmanatc]

sorry for the typo I fixed it

So, is it pure vintage maybe?  7.25 radius anyone know?

 

[oldmanatc]

After going back through the messages with the member I bought it from it is a total vintage, however I was told it had the compound radius. I'm not sure about the profile shape but to me it feels like standard thin.

When I saw the lack of skunk stripe and headstock truss rod adjuster, I knew it wasn't Vintage Modern. Because that's the one style I'm familiar with. I'd guessed at Total Vintage, thinking that it didn't have a skunk stripe. But the side-of-heel adjuster made me suspicious. So I looked it up, and I was wrong (happens all the time).

As far as I can see from the Warmoth site, the only Warmoth neck with no skunk stripe and a side-of-heel adjuster (plus the regular one at the end) is the Warmoth Pro construction. So if the seller told you it was Total Vintage, either he's wrong or I am. Incidentally, you can, at least currently, get any of these three neck styles in a compound radius.

It says 'Warmoth Radius' on the heel - I believe this means it's their 10-16" compound.

I just looked at the neck models on Warmoth and I think you're right about it being a Warmoth Pro, not for the reasons you listed. If you look at the product description, the rosewood fingerboard Total Vintage doesn't have the walnut truss plug or a skunk strip. The difference is my neck has 22 frets and a side of heel adjustment, whereas the Total Vintage has an end of heel adjustment and 21 frets.

P.S. Thanks Fat Pete, I didn't know that's what that meant.

[rolloman]

yes Warmoth Radius means it is 10 - 16 compound radius.

Ya might want to add the caveat that you can only ship to the United States, as Customs won't let B.R. leave the country.

Thanks for all the help everyone.
