  • Thinking of tearing up my DK1 for parts

    I just don't get on with Dinky shaped guitars. I'm thinking of stealing the neck, bridge, pots etc etc and putting them on another shape body like a Kelly.

    Thoughts?

    Personally I would sell it first , rather than tear it apart. Could probably make enough to pick up a nice Kelly . Just my opinion .

      Could make a cool project, but i agree you should try selling it first and picking up something you really like more.:idea:

          I say tear it down, and find an awesome body for the parts. BUT... do not sell any of the original parts youre not using. Keep them so you can always put the guitar back to original if you need to.

            Try your luck on Ebay. I thought DK1s were/are hot sellers? Probably for the neck

            In the end, it's your choice.


            How about putting the neck on a WRMG body instead of a Kelly?

              I already own 2 WR1's . I used to own a KE3, but the lack of binding bothered me. I've just put the DK1 on ebay just to see if it goes.

                No!

                I am the only person with a DK1KE3.

                There can be only one

                  Is that the Ultra Violet Burst KE3 with DK1 neck?

                    No, black on black. Blacked out hardware, black body.

                      If it's a bolt-on, it has to be a strat/dinky. Pointy/explorer/V shapes just don't do well as bolties, although the Star is the one style I haven't tried.

                        Agreed - I like the weird shaped ones to all be neck-thru.

                          with all respect,
                          (knowing your level of expertise)...

                          DON'T DO IT!!!

                          Sell it and buy what you want.
