Joined: June 2006 Posts: 7307 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 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. | ||

Joined: June 2006 Posts: 7307 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! | ||
