That's great! I didn't know AllParts necks were MIJ. Looking at the website I see some nice stuff.

Very nice, I dig the LPB over sunburst.

That's a face only a mother can love.

Coming out nicely. What shade of purple metal flake are you going to paint it?

Yes. They are made in the Fujigen plant. They’re great necks, but the they need work. The frets are level when the get them but the edge of the frets and board edges are pretty sharp. My luthier is amazing though and everything he touches plays like a custom shop guitar.

 

[Music&Chaos]

Really sweet neck! Congrats on the completed build.

Jap guitars are as good American guitars any day of the week. I’m talking higher end ones of course. Not the cheap dime a dozen ones. Which are usually pretty good too btw….

They really moved on from being the source of cheap instruments back in the 80's/90's. Cheap guitars are from elsewhere in Asia now.....and even those are surprsingly good compared to what we started off with.

Am I a hypocrite though, when I admit that all of my guitars are US produced! lol

It looks like a Strat Dave Murray beat the shit out of for decades.

only if they're Leo Fender's original Fender designs.

Scatosan builds some wild guit-fiddles.

This one is .

Like, it was actually lit on fire. I kid.

I love this build. All of his more recent builds are badass. Those necks are Fender CS Suhr Anderson level after the work.
