Warmoth Lined Fretless Neck, Birdseye Maple/Ebony

I bought this on TB about a year ago for $200. Neck has never been drilled for mounting nor for tuners. It is a 1 11/16" nut width (P-width). I paid a local person to finish it in nitrocellulose lacquer and put it on a nice body I have, but he left me with the job unfinished. It isn't a pro quality finish job. I'm selling as-is, and will be very forthright about the condition with lots of photos.






Pros: Truss rods functions, with smooth adjustment. Birdseye figuring is really nice. There is flame figuring also, as seen in photos. Fingerboard is dark and uniform in color. Neck feels much lighter than the newer Warmoth necks I've owned. Thin epoxy coating on fingerboard started (but not complete, see below).

Cons: Nitrocellulose finish isn't polished out. There is wear through on some edges, I presume from sanding back, and some chipping in a few places as well. There is some build up of finish on the very edge of the fingerboard (not the playing surface, the end edge). The finish isn't completely smooth and uniform. The epoxy coating on the fingerboard appears to stop just short of reaching both edges of the fingerboard by about 1/8". There is a difference in sheen, I'm assuming that means the epoxy isn't all the way out to the edge. Also a swath at both the high end of the board and up by the nut slot that have a less polished sheen too, so not sure if the coating is present here or just not as polished. I just can't tell for sure, but want you to be aware of the potential that it could use another coat of epoxy for a uniform appearance.

Considering what I paid seemed to be a fair value, and considering the finish isn't so great, I'll sell for

Just PM with any questions--this is something that some people might describe as in better condition, but I just want to make sure you aren't expecting a pro polished finish like I was when I finally got this.
