Hello Guys,
Back in the 90's there was a music catalog named Music Emporium that we got in the mail here in New Orleans. A friend of mine ordered a Charvel-style replacement neck from this catalog. It was a maple/maple with pretty wide fretboard (probably 1 3/4") and decent amount of shoulder with nicely rounded edges. Had a strat headstock. One of the best feeling necks I have ever felt.
Trying to find out the company who made these necks that were sold in the Music Emporium catalog. My friend traded this neck to me in the 90's, and I super-foolishly traded it to another friend for his '82 Fender American Strat neck. The white Fender Strat guitar with black pickguard and installed humbucker in bridge that this Charvel-style neck was installed on was later stolen, so it's gone for good. For all I know, it ended up in the massive trash piles after Katrina.
I would very much like to find out the company who sold these necks to try and get another one. It had the bare wood, buttery feel that was just fantastic. I'm still slapping myself for being so focused on having an official Fender neck that I traded this lovely neck for.
Any info on this venture would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
