Laminate guitar necks?

[Kuro Uma]

Does anyone know if warmoth will make a 5pc. laminate guitar neck with a tilt back headstock? I know I should call and ask, just wondered if anyone has done this before on here.

There have been a number of tilt-backs with a three-piece shaft separated by veneer stringers, and then a solid one-piece headstock attached via a scarf joint -but I haven't seen the kind of thick-layer sandwiches such as those that Carvin makes.  If W won't do it, Carvin will, but with fewer of the other options we are accustomed to from Warmoth.

You bassically* mean run a Gecko bass neck through the guitar-sized Neck-o-Tron, right? Never seen it done... but money talks, especially to a company that trades product for money. If they think it might catch on big, you'd be like the poster child for $500 laminated necks!




*(HAHAHA HaHa, hah...)

It can happen.  You'll normally see them on Warmoth or Variax headstocks.  It depends on what neck blanks are in stock.

That's pretty much what I mean. I'm thinking a 5 piece laminate like "rosewood\ebony\rosewood center\ebony\rosewood" just through the neck. The headstock cut piece of all rosewood. If that makes sense.
