razzark Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 I can't seem to find any place to find a 24fret bolt on neck. I have to admit to not searching super hard, but I check carvin an briefly scanned warmoth and came up with nothing. Oh yeah I don't really trust ebay.

Dr. Jabsco Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 http://www.warmoth.com/common/frames/guitarneck.htm There you go, its under the 21 to 22 conversion thing it may not be what you are looking for, as it is an extension, not a 24 fret neck.

Hardtailed Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Ok, just to make sure, you're looking for a 24-fret bolt-on guitar, or just the neck? If just the neck, what kind of guitar exactly? Because yes Warmoth makes one, but you need to have a Fender style guitar and you need to say goodbye to your neck pickup (because it's usually located under what should be the 24th fret). Converting an existing guitar to 24 frets may or may not be easy. We need more details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Thats why he shouldn't go for Warmoth. He could buy a Jackson guitar or an Ibanez guitar with 24 frets and the neck pickup is in the standard place. Where as with the Warmoth 24 fret necks, they are actually standard 22 fret necks with a fingerboard extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razzark Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I plan to make a Vee guitar and I think I could make neck pocket that can suit any neck but then again I haven't tried every neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardtailed Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 The warmoth neck is a viable option Another idea is the 24 fret neck through blank (already fretted) from StewMac, you just have to shape the peghead. However, it's close to 200$, so if you do that, you might as well just make it a neck through... If you don't want to make the neck yourself, you can look into a pre-slotted fingerboard from LMI or Stewmac, it's one job less and it cost like 15$ ( you still have to do the frets and the inlays, you can do the plastic rod trick for the inlays, and the frets could be installed by a local luthier). You'd still have to shape the neck yourself though, but hey! you gotta learn somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazyderek Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I'm suprised no one mentioned LGM yet, he started making necks, might want to check out his pricing or drop him a line for an exact quote if you want something special.
