Help with new neck

Sanitarium · #1 01-08-2007, 10:44 PM

Alright, I just got a Fender Aerodyne IIJ jazz bass, and I love it. But I haven't been able to play it, because it has a twisted neck. I'd like to replace the neck on it, but I love the matching headstock. Does anyone know of a good, relatively cheap neck that I could buy where I could get a matching headstock as an option? Warmoth?

Describe this twisted neck. Have you taken it to a luthier? If you love it, maybe it can be fixed. It's not always the death knell for your neck.

I've taken it to a tech and he says it's repairable but it will be expensive...Those necks you showed me are pretty much perfect basshole, thanks!

My pleasure, glad I could help. I've purchased a neck from them, first class outfit. You should be quite pleased.

Best of luck!
