PRS 594 McCarty Sunburst. I thought the hardest part would be convincing myself to part with the money. Now it seems like they're hard to find. I keep checking the Sweetwater site every day.

12 string Rickenbacker 330 or 360.....been playing my 620 too much and now it’s the only neck I like!

I wouldn’t mind an AC4tv model for the 1/2 watt mode either...quieter at home practicing.

Love it! "Some assembly required", so I had to drill some holes for tuners and string trees, and it didn't quite fit in my Strat body so I had to slightly elongate one of the 3-bolt bolt holes. I also had to widen three of the nut slots to accommodate my wound string gauges (particularly the .060 that I keep tuned to D), but as of this morning after a day's work, it's all mounted up, and I still need to recheck the truss rod and reset the action, then reset intonation. But it's close, and I'm already loving it.

The steel frets definitely feel different, not sure about sound since so many other things have changed (including fresh strings) but there is a feel difference, perhaps a bit less smooth than my old worn nickel frets. The larger radius meant changing the saddle heights, otherwise it's hard for me to tell 9" vs. 7.25". The neck is also a bit thicker and quite noticeably heavier, but it's a minor difference.

The quality of the Warmoth neck is top shelf, you won't get that from Fender, and as far as I can tell all the frets are perfect with no high or low spots. It's also gorgeous. Two thumbs, and both big toes, up for this neck!
