Is it me or does anyone else feel

that if you replace a neck or anything else that you will let out your guitar's mojo? I received my maple neck for my 95 Strat. (my #1), to replace my rosewood. There isn't anything wrong with my current neck but I really love the maple necks. Now I'm on the fence about replacing it... I want the maple neck but I feel as though I'm betraying my #1... damn I'm a weird fuck.

It's a bolt-on. Just mess with it until you get the "Feel" you want. You "Will" see a dif between maple and rosewood.

Play with that neck for a while. Then change the body,too. You're gonna feel the change in the mojo

over in sullyville, we swap necks annually just to keep those guitars from gettin' all uppity. the neckthrus fuckin' HATE it.

in all seriousness, it's parts, man. granted, i'm a firm believer in the whole is greater than the sum of its parts theory, but you can always put it back.

No, it's you.

i have not changed the strings on my sg in years because i odnt want it to lose that mojo

Swapping parts with better parts increases mojo. Check out Blackie and that left handed strat Joe Perry played in the 70's for reference.

No....proof that mojo is in the recording contract....

I swapped out a Trem bar and Increased mojo by 5%.

Did you screw it in all the way? I bet you can pick up another 1%.

Dude i'm the same way, just swap it and see if you like it. I get the same vibe. I have a charvie with a crack in the scarf joint, I swapped for another usa neck and I found I liked the cracked one better it's got that irreplaceable MOJO.

The way I look at it, is that at least 67% of a guitar's identity is it's neck. Of course I'm not talking about how it looks. It's the way it feels, and how it makes you play. Sure, you may have a guitar you like to play, because it sounds a certain way, but if it had a complete ratshit neck, the fact is, you wouldn't play it.

I'd be really freaked out if I had to replace the neck on at least 4 of my guitars, even if they weren't neck thru or set neck.

That's why I'm a little bit more than just apprehensive about the homemade Bich....I'm going to build another, but what is it that is giving me that "tone"?
Is it what I built into the body, or is it that neck I stuck on it? It sounded good before, but now it sounds great, and that neck is a certified POS I grabbed off a Lotus LP.

I have a 68 Teisco 110 with an 18 ply neck and its a POS guitar but I love the way it feels and sounds.IMO if it feels good play it.
