Cyr/Squier custom neck - maple/rosewood - awesome!

Sign in to disble this ad
Here is the neck that was to originally go with my "Pea Green P Monster" body.

The neck is a late 90s Squier, made in China, but don't let that fool you. It's as solid as any American, Japanese, or Mexican Fender neck I've ever seen. I'm not exactly sure if it's a J or P, but the nut width is 1 and 5/8". As you can see, the neck is maple. The fingerboard is very nicely grained rosewood, which has been freshly lemon-oiled.

I had Steve Cyr (http://www.cyrguitars.com) remove the Squier logo and apply his own logo. You can see some evidence of sanding from where the old logo was removed and the new logo was applied but it's really only noticeable under light (see pics.) I also had him re-shape the headstock. I think it looks pretty cool. I'm not sure who makes the tuners, but I believe they are original to the neck. The whole neck is in good shape. Some minor roundwound string wear on some frets on the E/A-string side. Frets have a little wear but look to have plenty of life left. The back of the neck was heavily-glossed when I bought it, so I took a green Scotch-Brite pad and smoothed it down to a more satin feel. I think it feels great. There are a few horizontal finish scratches toward the heel where I got a little over-zealous, but they're not that noticeable.

The heel is 2.5 inches, and SHOULD fit most Fender-style bodies, but may require modification. I've heard Squier necks are a hair slimmer than most Fender necks so you may need a shim or something similar.

$125 shipped lower 48. No trades. Money order and Paypal are fine.

Some pics below. More pics here.

Some local interest; this probably won't be here much longer. Wednesday bump. If interested, e-mail me as it's harder for me to check PMs at work. Thanks!
