Swapping a new neck onto my thinline style Harley Benton. Why would I do this? The neck currently on it feels alright, no complaints really. The neck overall isnt anything to sing about, has that certain import lumber feel to it. Top on the guitar looks better than in the pic I uploaded but the beautiful top isnt why I am upgrading it. Mostly due to it being a gift from a friend a year or two back who is not doing so well now. I want it to really be something I just love.

swapping the hardware helped.

Putting in my custom P90 set made it sound just awesome.

now onto the next upgrade.

I got a great deal when I made a bid I thought would not win and here we are......

Short scale conversion neck.

Nitro finished American Cherry neck with Bubinga board.


I just finished installing the Gotoh vintage tuners I grabbed on sale.

Will get it fitted up and drilled ASAP for testing.

Nice neck!

How has your friend Jeff been doing? Wasn't that his name? Sorry I had a big list lately and sometimes have trouble keeping track.
