Hi, folks -
I picked up this neck about a month ago and decided it's not my thing.
This is a 24.75" conversion neck, Strat headstock and heel, satin vintage tint (but it's been burnished to a kinda semi-gloss luster). You can see from the photos that the prior owner took some liberties. It originally was equipped with stop-pin tuners (Schallers?) but was converted to Gotohs with the screws. Also, it's prepped for for string trees. The frets are stainless 6105s and have virtually no wear, as one might expect. The nut appears to be corian or white Graphtech.
The real fun part to disclose is that the former owner could not fit the neck in the pocket of his axe, so he sanded the sides of the heel as shown in the photos. This makes no difference in functionality, and when installed in a Strat, it's invisible, although you might wind up with a hair's breadth more space between the heel and the sides of the pocket on your axe.
Anyway - the neck is for sale, including tuners, for $150 shipped in the US.
