Jaguar neck UK

Post by SadFuzz » Tue Oct 06, 2020 11:56 pm

Looking for an unfinished jag neck with rosewood board for a build i'm planning. I was originally going to go with a Hosco one from axecaster but its disappeared from their site. The only other one they have is an AllParts one and its listed as out of stock. Anyone have one or know a site where i could source one from without breaking the bank?

Thanks

From Fuzz to Fuzz... a recommendation! Jagged Offset Electric formerly known as Blackstar Guitars have a small selection of finished and unfinished Jaguar necks - said to be the same specs as Allparts... I recently got the cream amp style knobs from them.https://reverb.com/item/33162725-new-vi ... =33162725

I hope this helps!
I‘m in search of one too - but I‘d love to have one with binding (and maybe even block inlays)... just missed a Squier CV neck - before I knew how good they look and feel (in person).

Sorry maybe a bit more expensive than you intended but you could order one from guitarbuild?

https://www.guitarbuild.co.uk/collectio ... tar-neck-1

( I wasn't sure whether to post this but didn't know what price point breaks your bank :) )

EDIT - actually ignore this - I didn't realise how expensive these necks can get once you start adding all the custom options.

normally i'd offer my help but i dont have any spares laying around. usually when i see a jaguar/mustang neck for sale, i snap it up but it just doesn't happen often. the neck on my black jaguar, i had to wait a good 18 months to come up. the best tip i can give is buy one of the harley benton mustangs, take the parts you need and sell the body.

Also thinking of finishing it in gunmetal blue similar to an old 80s strat plus. What could i mix to get that or is there anywhere uk based that could help?

Sorry, no information to add, but was wondering if someone happens to know if any other Jaguar necks than the Am Std has a 43mm nut? Most that I've found specs for seem to have narrower ones, and I don't really get along with them...
Jazzmaster project (got a body, placeholder neck, some pickups and ideas)

That looks really good but its also sadly more than i want to spend. I was hoping to just get the paint and finish the body myself. Curse me for choosing a rare colour.

This is what i had in mind
