Parting out both of my partscasters as I need the space!  Pics to be embedded later.

First up, a T-type based on a G&L USA ASAT classic body with musikraft AAAA flame maple neck and EMGs. Body bought from G&L when they used to sell off parts. Then spent ages sourcing an original string retainer for the back and bridge then spent a small fortune on the neck, which is oil finished, with a shallow U shape. Fender necks don't fit G&Ls or vice versa due to some weirdness. Just to clarify, this is a purpose-built G&L spec neck made by Musikraft, don't think they do them anymore but they used to offer G&L replacement necks.

Schaller tuners but some of the screw heads are stripped as I didn't drill a pilot hole deep enough. There is also part of a screw stuck in the body under the neck pickup as I originally tried to screw the pickup to the body and it snapped. EMG T pickups.

Only used in the studio so I never drilled strap buttons. 

https://ibb.co/vkgrP1k






G&L USA body incl bridge and rear string retainer £350
Musikraft neck £200
Schaller tuners (you'll probably want to buy new screws) £40
EMG T set and electronics £90


S-type based on 1980 Fender USA hardtail strat body with brand new Fender Mexico 70s style neck. 






Fender USA body, dish and neckplate £700
Fender Mexico neck £225 (has original box)
Fender USA pickups, electronics and scratchplate: £90 for the set
Fender USA tuners £50
Fender USA hardcase £90 (instruction/warranty manual not included, no idea what this is worth so will probably put on eBay)

Postage at cost or can be collected from high Wycombe.

    Thanks for doing that - not possible on a phone unfortunately and not had a chance to get onto a PC to sort the pics

    Have you got any dims for the musikraft neck - width and depth at the 1st and 12th frets. Also, are you saying that the neck won't fit an f-type neck pocket?

    I think it's longer than the Fender one? Real 22 frets without the overhang. Truss rod adjustment in the heel so not like you can shave it off

    Put some pics in the thread.

    I cba clicking all those individual links to see if there’s anything interesting in there.
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    (Maybe my embedding a picture was too subtle a hint.)
    Likewise, I'm not up for playing whack-a-mole to see if clicking on one of the links takes me to something of interest.

    So because you can't be arsed to click a link or two on a thread with pics and a decent description,  you feel a snotty response is the best way to go...... Interesting...

    Bump with pics embedded. Once again, I think it's important for all to recognise that not everyone has access to a PC all the time and it's not possible to embed pics on a phone due to the software this forum uses.

    Understood - it's really a question of whether you want to attract interest in the item for sale.

    Incidentally, for screws with stripped/mashed heads, look up Neji-saurus (yep - that's the name!); I have a pair of the full-size ones I use for misc tasks and they do a smaller model too.
