ok here is my problem ,, i need a guitar builder to make some major mods on a danelectro 6 string guitar neck ,,, remove the fret board and replace it with a new fretboard and put in new frets and dots ,, i am building a danelectro double neck copy of the late 50's early 60's where the bass neck is the exact same length as the 6 string neck ,,, the headstock holes i can handle ,,, any thoughts out there on who can do this for me ?? thunks

Why the new fretboard? Changing the scale length?

i am building a danelectro double neck and those old dano's the bass neck if the same length as the 6 string neck ,,,,, thats why i need a 6 string neck reworked,,,,,,,, something about those old dano doublenecks i just totaly love , and the fact it was the very first guitar i ever held when i was little

Unless you're changing the scale length,the present fretboard and fret spacing should work.Weren't all Dano fretboards rosewood anyway?

the fret spacing is different

Curt is your man . . .

i am almost done with my danelectro longhorn convert , finish it tomorrow , i'll post some pics ,,,, then i will start building a the dano doubleneck , gonna be fun !!,,,,, yeah i'll contact him ,,,, i can buy an old dano bass for the neck , but it would be a shame to destroy a nice old dano , thanks Andy !!

Speaking of which, Subway had some new old stock stuff, including 1960s bass necks, and their internet pages are not that informative or updated, but here's a link: http://www.fatdawg.com/dane... be sure to ask about the correct style headstock though, they have (had?) several kinds, like the 4 on a side they converted to 4+2 for those baritones.

hey thanks Mr Flayer ,, i'll call them !!
