I am in the process of buying a dx10 body. I have a ke3 stamped neck and a j580lp licensed floyd rose tremolo that I was going to install on this body. I know that the dx10d came with the j580lp but the neck that came factory was a reverse headstock. My ke3 neck headstock is pointed down. I assume(not for sure) that the DK series guitars offer the same body style as the dx10d with the headstock pointed down, but will my ke3/ kvx10 neck work on a dx10d body? Thanks.

When swapping necks you mainly need to be concerned with the number of frets, then the scale length.
22 fret necks with "made for" 22 fret bodies; 24 fret necks with made for" 24 fret bodies.
Then the scales should match, but we seen success with mixing scales.

Very nice body finish.. It looks somehow similar to my old Gibson LP where I learn how to play guitar.Last edited by gavin_rossdale; 06-12-2011, 12:35 PM.

I put a 24 fret KVX10D (the non-Floyded BGF model from a couple of years ago) neck on a DXMGT body (same period). Worked fine, though you may find a slight gap on one side. Nothing too bad, as I recall.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

oh, if you are buying the body that you have the picture of, it looks like that has the jt500/schaller-type route for the bridge, not the jt580lp bridge route....GEAR:

It's longer in the back, where the fine tuners are. If you tried to "float" it (like a non-recessed Floyd) your neck angle would be all wrong and the strings would be a mile above the fretboard.My Gear: Stoneman SG-1, Hufschmid Tantalum H6, ESP KH-6, Sully #8 JCF One-Off, Templar GuitarWorks Relic Prototype, James Hetfield Tribal Hunt KL Explorer, Coobeetsa CCG-10-DX PRO Eagle, Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Hybrid, Daly Heiro Custom, Gibson Les Paul Custom, Gibson SG Menace, Peavey Vypyr 60 Tube
