If you have to ask what a shim is, then you shouldn't do it, and the likelihood of fitting a Rogue neck to an SX bass without a lot of work is slim to none, and if you could find a guitar tech willing to do it, it would be more expensive than it's worth, as the SX neck would be superior to the Rogue anyway. Not a good idea at all.

Don't Rogue basses have plastic tuners? I saw one cracked in half once, it looked like it.

Use the SX neck and go at it with sandpaper or something if you don't like it.

Dude, this isn't a cell phone. Punctuation and proper spelling is your friend. Textspeak comes across as intellectually lazy on a forum like this and people won't take you seriously, as has happened here. Just some friendly advice.
And no. it's not possible to switch headstocks.

I never use rouge. I don't play in those kinds of bands.

Just buy the SX and take the neck off. Then shape the headstock to your liking.........someone on TB has already done this.......it looks like a Fender Telecaster headstock.
Use the search function......you'll find pictures of it.

Which question was that? It's hard to follow your posts as it's obvious that English is a second (third?) language to you.

Blech.

bass rocks - if English isn't your native language (blank profile), please pm me. If it is, stop. This ain't OT.
