  • Musikraft necks and bodies for Charvel replica?

    I came across the musikraft (click here) webpage doing a google search for guitar bodies and neck parts. Anyone have any of their stuff, necks in particular? Seems like nice stuff at a reasonable price with lots of custom options. Plus they seem pretty close in specs (not exact, but close enough) to use as replica part to build a Charvel. Any comments would be great.

    I just ordered a Strathead neck from them. One piece quartersawn maple, 1-3/4 nut, 15" radius and dual action trussrod. I've heard good things about their stuff. Haven't got it yet but when I do I'll post some pics.

      Definitely let us see it when it arrives. Their stuff looks really nice for sure. Anyone else?

        They used to have pictures of necks up, but now it looks like everything is custom-order only. The ball end of their headstock is one of the closest to an actual Charvel.

          I think they had 2 choices on the headstock shape, 1954 and 1960. Which would be the correct one to use L?

              I'm not 100% for sure, but from memory I believe it was the 1954 headstock. I'm sure if you e-mailed them they could get you some pics of those headstocks.

                  Just sent them an email this morning. Hopefully I'll hear something before the weekend.

                      Does anyone know if the Charvel necks are 10 - 16 radius? I see that Musikraft offers 9.5-16, or 10-14. does the Floyd need a 10 degree radius at the nut, or is 9.5 close enough? [img]/images/graemlins/help.gif[/img]

                        I thought Charvie neck were 16 on pointies and 12 on stratheads. Not sure though.

                            I had a Musikraft neck on my old unfinished SD body for several years. It was my #1 guitar. Great neck!
                            This was 15 years ago, so you know they've been doing this for a while.

                            I recommend them.

                              The one you smashed on your patio? That was an awesome looking guitar.
