    Recommended Maple Necks

    Hi everyone,

    I'm some what new here but I wanted to take part in some discussions about guitars since there's nowhere else to go these days

    I currently have a 2004 Fender MIM P Bass with a few few small upgrades. What I'm trying to do is convert my bass into a vintage style one. In particular: Roger Waters style. I have the strings (Rotosound Jazz Bass 77), I have the bridge ('62 reissue), the pickups I'm happy with at the moment (Basslines), but wanted an all-maple neck.

    Any recommendations on quality maple necks that won't cost an arm and a leg? (I've seen AllParts, Mighty Mite, and the ultra expensive American-made ones)

    Thanks,

    Marantz2010

    All posts in this thread have been removed but I'm not locking it because perhaps the O.P. can be answered in a way that doesn't violate TFF's rules.

    Look folks--you're going to find I'm letting a lot of stuff slide that I didn't in years past. I'm really for self-moderation of this site. However, there are a couple rules we cannot let slide and still call ourselves The Fender Forum.

    Please review the rules and pay particular attention to #10. Thanks.

    Sorry sir,

    I have found that I will purchase a AllParts neck and get some Vintage Tuners for it and I'll be set.

    Thanks for the help!
