Gibson LP Replacement Neck

[Ben]

Hey all,

Hope everyone is well. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good website or shop where I can get a Gibson LP style replacement bolt on neck. My friend has given me his old guitar body and asked if I could have a go placing on a neck etc. So if any of you know a great place to get one please let me know.

Thanks heaps.

Ben

Hi Ben, this is not as easy as it sounds.
For a start, Gibson has never used bolt on necks, so if the body is set up for a bolt on neck, it is not a Gibson
Unlike Fender there is no standard for scale length and neck pocket size etc for a lp copy with a bolt on neck.
He doesnt have the old (broken?) neck does he so you could check scale length?

Hi Ben.

As Jeff has mentioned, some modification will likely be required and more info needed for a suitable replacement.

But that said, I'd say Warmoth would be your best bet. Perhaps something like this ?

Certainly the most likely to be able to custom make what you are looking for.

Hope it helps.

Jeremy.

I can do you a les paul / gibson shaped neck if you want, but you will need to modify it to fit and shape the headstock to suit.
