I was thinking the same thing, Brent. Gave them a shout and was told that the parts needed to fix it aren't even being made any longer. They pretty much said it was junk. I found a place in my neck of the woods that restores amps. Turns out they were also a GK authorised repair shop back in the...

Well dang... I've had a 1200CEB for quite some time. I loved it then, but it died playing a party one night, so I sent it in via my music store to GK for repair. It took like 3 months but was fine for a while after it came back only to die again. I put it in a closet back around '95 and only...

Laura, Oddly enough, the guys at Stratosphere don't really seem to have a clue about what they have in stock at any given time. I do know that their inventory cycles through fairly rapidly. The way I found my replacement neck was to hit their site almost daily and run a search for Fender Jazz...

Hi Laura, Sorry for the extremely long delay getting back... I haven't been on in a while. I found my 22 fret replacement neck at The Stratosphere's website. They sell Fender replacement parts. You have to keep an eye on their inventory as they won't tell you what they have in stock. Be sure...

Oh man... I'm taking a trip down memory lane. I had a B-15T back in the late 80's. It was stolen out of the back of my truck one night along with my bass and that's all she wrote. I played many a bar with that little amp and it never once let me down. Roll er in, flip the top, plug in and go...

You've got a great looking bass also! I've been curious about the color. It was a blueish grey shade when new, but has changed to that greenish-turquoise shade and I really like it too. Stratosphere has a wide selection of bass necks. You have to pay attention to the pics of each one so you...

Just a heads up... Warmoth makes 22 fret necks also that may be cheaper if you're not concerned about keeping your bass all Fender. Allparts.com is another source.

It's actually a bit crazy. I called Fender thinking it'd be simple... Their support folks were clueless when I told them about the 22 fret neck. I found the solution at Stratosphere.com and funny enough, it was a Fender factory 22 fret replacement. I to this day, don't get why Fender's own...

Hello all, I'm relatively new here. I first found this site looking for a solution to the broken truss rod on my 1990 dated Longhorn Jazz bass. The non-standard 22 fret neck threw me for a loop for a while as the majority of replacement necks out there are 20 fret. This is how I learned my bass...

Late to the gig here, but GFR's live "Caught in the act" album is holy grail material to me. Grew up to it. Black licorice is killer.
