Choose my Tele neck

[DangerousR6]

I'd have to say, I need to see the body first.... :toothy11:

I vote for this one, but have them recut the headstock to a Warhead...

Prettiest Rosewood I've ever seen (and with no markers to boot), over a very fine hunk of curly roasted Maple neck meat. It's delightful. It's delicious. And thanks to the miracle of torrefication, it's de sugar-free. What's not to love?

Guaranteed you'll be the first kid on your block to have one, and you can sneak up on contenders by saying "It's just Rosewood over Maple. Nothing special." When they pass out from shock after seeing it, you can grab their wallets and pay off your credit card.

By far, this would be my choice... :headbang1:

Well 770 was sold, so that left 620.  620 is ordered.

Well, as has been pointed out, the '620 looks like a little tighter grain, so it'll probably burnish up nicer.

It will be awhile until this all comes together, but hopefully not as long.  The body and original neck were ordered in 2005.

So, 13 years between steps... I guess that qualifies as a patient, comtemplative build  :laughing7:

I put a Strat together for a guy who'd had all the parts laying around for 10 years. Now it's been laying around here for about 3. One of these days...

I've got a potentially nice Strat of my own that's been rotting in the closet for about 7 or 8 years, I think.

Ordered with old school 2 step Schaller holes.  Open geared Hipshot staggers going in it

Well the other body waiting for a build is from 2009.  What does that say ?
