Location: South of most, North of few | This is a really silly request, but I thought I'd throw it out there. Does anyone have a section of a bad neck or fret board like from the body to about 6 inches up that they would like to donate to a project I am considering? I'm looking to make a lamp out of the 1614 (salad bowl) body that I have and I need a short section of neck to carry up to the lamp assy. (OK, you can all start talking about me now, just do it behind my back) :rolleyes: |

I'll check when I get home.
I think I still have the neck from the Celebrity that Temp put his boot through a few tours ago. |

Location: south east Michigan | I still have it.
I'd give it a 6-1/2 out of ten.
Still has part of the bowl attached.
It was going to be part of the OFC MOTY trophy till I found something better.
If you want it, you got it. |

Definatly a 6-1/2 out of 10.
I gave up on trying to get the neck seperated from where it's attached to the bowl. Darn thing is built like a Mack truck.
The area of the fretboard you're looking for is intact so I think you'll be able to make it work.
That sacrificed Celeb is part of OFC history. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Yeah Brad, I sent you a couple of emails. Thanks, I hope I can make it work. The section they cut out is much wider than the neck, so I've got to figure out something to fill it in with. Thanks also for the trinket cd! Great stuff! |
