Certified Luthier with 20+ Years experience, running two repair shops in 2 separate states, employing 6 other luthiers...these may be the nicest no-name replacement necks I have ever come across, especially considering the price. The only thing that would make these better would be quartersawn wood, but the price would go up considerably for that.These came out of the box extremely flat, with significantly better-than-average fretwork, and have really nice finish work done on them too. That is of note to anyone buying a half-paddle version with plans to cut their own headstock shape. These do have a light matte finish on them, so if you cut your own shape, you will need to overspray.I originally ordered both the rosewood fb half-paddle and the maple fb half paddle. One of the maples had clearly been sitting in a warehouse for a long time and had cracked from the heel to the middle of the neck and the fretboard had separated. All of the rosewood boards were excellent. Returned the one bad maple for another rosewood. Would appear they have discontinued the maple anyway.100% would recommend.

I realize these overseas necks can be a crap shoot sometimes, but for what it's worth, the neck I got was very nice. Accurate measurements and for better or for worse they come with sealer already applied. The heel shape could have been more accurate. It's more curved than an actually tele pocket, maybe I got a strat heel by mistake, but I was able to rasp down for a better fit in my tele pocket.

This thing looks great. The frets look straight and the edges feel good. Love the toasted maple color. I would definitely buy another.

Will be using this in my first cigar-box guitar. The maple is of excellent quality and the finish is flawless. It has a little back bow but with string tension that might be an advantage and a built-in adjustment rod will take up the slack if needed. Frets need a little filing but that's not a big deal. I was worried about the quality of the wood but both the neck and the fretboard are exactly what I had hoped for.

Nice and straight out the box, love the roasted maple look. Has a smooth finish, nice an high frets, cleans edges. I havent cut out the headstock yet ut am glad its a half paddle so i have room to work with. Good pricing too

Beautiful neck and well priced. Some fret work needed, but honestly expected and welcomed given this is a hands on custom build project.
