Hello,

I’m looking for anyone who’s selling a Nitefly neck.
Looking to swap it with what’s currently mounted to the body of mine.

Thanks!

What's the issue with your neck?

The frets keep falling out, I’ve already reglued quite a few frets. They hold but then a different one eventually falls off. There is also some damage to the back of the neck. This could be filled and sanded down but I rather buy a neck in decent condition and just swap it with the existing neck.

I have a neck which has a somewhat ineffectual truss rod. So it would also need repair. But the frets are sound and the back is in good shape. If that's helpful I can send it to you.

Depending on your price, I may be interested. What’s the issue with the truss rod? Is it the nut itself or the thread that the nut attaches to?

Hi. I'm not selling it - I can just send it to you if you want it. What is wrong is that at maximum tension, there's still relief. Maybe a pro luthier can fix that. I could not.

Someone was kind enough to send me a new neck free of charge. I certainly won't charge for one which I consider defective. You'd have to use tuners and truss nut from your old neck.

PM me if interested.

Amazing! I dm’d you. I should be able to loosen the nut then straighten the neck using heat press so that I can take care of the relief and still have play to make adjustments in future when needed. I was a cabinet maker for a few years so I should be able to fix it. Once again, thank you so much!!!

Dun dun dah DAH! Super Pat!
