not hijacking, but I'm thinking about swapping a JP6 roasted neck over onto a Dargie II Silo. like the dargie pickup/switch arrangement...but the JP6 neck is just better for me personally. Both necks are same width at the last fret so is that insane?

Jamie, we are waiting for pics of the transformation, unless you took the "Spud way" and in that case we have to wait a bit longer :D

i doubt they'll 'sew' you but they might 'sue' you! :D

Get on with it. as sick a colour as olive gold is already on a luke, the rosewood neck on it will make it an unreal version of a luke. happy days.

Thanks for the advice guys, sorry I haven't replied for a while but I've been away doing a few intense rehersals. I'll give it a go soon.

Do I need to loosen the truss rod, or just swap the necks straight over?

Cheers,

Jamie.

I say go for it. If I had the funds, I would've kept my BFR JP6 with the sweert tobaccoburst flame top and put the rosewood neck from the JP6 I traded it for onto it, no question in my mind.
