Choices
Finally got round to opening a parcel that arrived just as we were setting off to Llandudno on Saturday. Quite surprised to find it was the guitar neck I’d ordered off eBay a fortnight ago, as the estimated delivery date was mid July!
It’s about what you’d expect for something costing under fifty quid and made in China, and will need a bit of fettling to bring it up to scratch. I put some lemon oil on the top of the fretboard, which helped, but there would be more polishing and smoothing required before I was totally happy with it. The original neck had also responded to a bit of cleaning, and it does have a nice patina to it.
So now I need to decide which one to use on the project. Both need the back of the neck smoothing, frets polishing, new tuners fitting and generally setting up. No difference in work involved then, so it’s going to come down to which one I think will look the best on the finished guitar…
