PC3 neck

[Stew]

Hi all. I have a jackson PC3 which has a pretty worn neck. I was thinking of replacing it, but I am unsure as to what size I would need. Will it tell me on the present neck?

Thanks

Why

Why not just have it refretted?

[Stew]

because I am very partial to the strat headstock.

and also was thinking of an ebony board - as nice as the maple on is, I do like the richer tone of a dark wood.

All

All it will say on the neck when you get it off is "PC-3"..and maybe some inspection initials. The only way to get a 24 fret ebony neck is off a USA Jackson on Ebay. Jackson won't sell you a neck. And warmoth 24 fret necks won't work...the neck length and pocket are off.

ahh. Would a warmouth 22fret neck fit?

If it would, I think the intonation might always be off.

That guitar cant be that old. In what way is it worn?

[Stew]

ahh, I see. so a re-fret it is then. thanks for the help guys.

Cant musicraft or someone make a 24 fret ebony board neck with a strat headstock and a 2.25" heel?

[MartinBarre]

Yeah, you could sell the PC3 neck for some funds.

Most of the places that make necks that do 24 frets just ad lips. A refret would be cheaper too.

If

If you were able to find a Jackson neck on ebay..it might look something like this:

Yep... for about $400.
I've priced it out with them and USA Custom Guitars.
