It definitely seems to need a new neck. If one had a 1115 neck on hand, would it be difficult or even possible to remove the existing neck and replace it on this bowl ? http://cgi.ebay.com/Ovation-12-String-Acoustic-Guitar-Luthier-Proje... seesquare Posted 2011-07-12 9:13 AM (#350319 - in reply to #350318) Subject: Re: 1115 needs a new neck!

Pulling the neck off the body is too much of a gamble, in distorting the joint geometry & integrity. I have repaired 12-string pegheads like this, and they hold fine. As long as some other bozo has not tried to reglue it already. Best of luck!
