Warmoth 3x3 neck - flame maple, rosewood, block inlays, finished, blk headstock

[bagman67]

Hello, boys and girls.  This lovely neck is for sale.


Warmoth 3x3 tiltback headstock
Finished by yours truly - gloss nitrocellulouse lacquer on the headstock, thin coat of Tru-oil on the shaft, black-painted headstock face.  Finish ain't perfect but it's pretty good.
Quartersawn moderately-flamey maple shaft
Standard thin contour
1 11/16" nut width
Indian rosewood fretboard with pearloid block inlays
Tuner bore is 10mm Gotoh ream
There is a tiny dent in the headstock face, but I will also throw in a chrome or gold Warmoth die-cut logo that will cover it.  If you want, I can install same.
Stainless 6115's installed
Black Graphtec nut
The photo doesn't show it, but I also have the truss rod cover in black.


Neck alone (plus Warmoth logo if desired) = $270, shipping included
I'll throw in a set of new non-locking Gotohs in chrome or black for another $40


The photos lie a little - the headstock is glossier than it appears, but I was trying to avoid reflections from the light.
The nitro and tru-oil have yellowed a bit, but the photos make it look more pronounced than it is in real life.
The rosewood has a slightly reddish cast to it that does not show up well.  Not intensely red, just a little lighter than the photos portray.

Nice one.  If I didn’’t st buy one I would grab it.  GLWS!

SOLD. 


Funny thing - I put it out on the kitchen table to remind me to pack it up and take it to work the next day.  Sometime in the night, one of the cats - and I'm pretty sure it was the fat one, who also chews on the flaps of open cardboard boxes - gnawed on the end of the headstock.  So I had to sand it and fill the teethmarks and refinish it in its entirety.  Somehow, the goddamned cat yet lives.  Anyway, the buyer was supremely patient and understanding, and was very pleased with what he got when he opened the box.

Somehow, the goddamned cat yet lives.

In this house that cat would be dead quick. After all, they make lots of them.

Didn't that cat chew something else up as well? Or maybe I'm thinking of someone else.

 

[bagman67]

Nope, first strike for this beastie.  But I may have remarked on her having done the job on this neck elsewhere.

 

[Cagey]

Ah, yes. I looked it up. For Sale or Trade: One Dead Cat. That's where I remember it from.
