well, its looks similar for sure..different materials maybe, but Im not as concerned with that as much as it fitting correctly and being the same scale and all..Ill have to do some research on it..are you looking to sell the whole guitar? or could I buy the neck?

Hmm I thought I responded to your email (I was out of town at the time).. I will re-send my response this eve when I get home if it's still in my outbox.

But bottom line, I may have a neck for you. The only real difference is if it attaches with bolts or screws.

Make sure you know if you need the 16 fret version or 18 fret version. Serials B- and older should be the short version. I think Miles has it right, the short versions are all screw attachment and the long versions are bolt on.
