Jason, if you have the two-bolt-type bowl on your Matrix, this should fit. |

Location: Ct./ USA | Buyer BEWARE! ALERT! ALERT! What you see there is a damaged BUSTED neck! Gee, I say "were are the neck ears" and were did the "aluminum dove tail" go? Missing like teeth from a chicken. If Mr. Ovation has some parts I have the time. You know how to look me up. |

I have a Medallion (pre-Matrix). I've been thinking of replacing the neck, although the guitar has a lot of personal history as is... so maybe not. |
