Just Got my Musikraft Charvel Neck

[scottosan]

Tools about 12 weeks, but it’s really nice. I’m building a Charvel Nitro Aged series clone. 4A Roasted Birdseye with aged oil. Cream dots brass side dots. I have a KNE body at MJT getting an aged graffiti yellow treatment like the bottom photo, but with a little less aging










dice 1 5




Going for something like this

That looks awesome!

Might be hard to really tell until built and set up but how does the Pro Mod C 79/85 feel? And why 21 frets?

the profile feels pretty damn close to a pro mod. It feels really good.
21 frets because that what the nitro series used and most of the pre prod.

Thanks for posting these specs - I've been meaning to order a neck just like this but I keep going down the rabbit holes of specs and wind up losing where I was at and not ordering it

You have excellent taste in gear sir !

I'm with you dude, his eyes see what my eyes see gear wise for sure.

I'm glad I went with roasted maple on my Chubtone build. Freaking looks killer! I think roasted maple is going to gain momentum and become popular on a lot of guitars. I remember the first roasted maple Charvel I saw I was like "WTF is that????". Looks badass.

Roasted maple is very stable too. I’ve got three.

Man that's super nice, gonna be awesome when it's done.

Any high frets?

Oh man, that's awesome! I didn't even realize that. Nice extra bonus.

Years ago, I probably wouldn't have been a fan of roasted maple necks but lately I've been really interested. I didn't go with the highest birdseye maple on my Chubtone because with it being roasted, I didn't think it would stand out as much.

Any high frets?

They look pretty good but won’t know for sure until I get it together.

A quick check with a fret rocker will tell you what you’re up against

 

[scottosan]

Got the old style logo buried in Nitro, wet sanded to low sheen. Nice low humidity day. Took about 5 hours total. Just needs to cure

 

[hammered]

^ Looks awesome

 

[thenine]

F’in killer!

Man that looks bad ass. The aged oil looks really good on birdseye. I had a 4A Birdseye Tele neck made years ago by Musikraft and even though the guitar is long gone, it's still a neck I think about all the time. The guys at Musikraft were also very cool to deal with, I called them up and yakked the guys ear off for such a long time before I ordered. If I ever need a neck, they're my go-to.
