I came back from uke band practice tonight, and saw the news about Dusty Hill. What a shock.

I know roasted maple is in vogue now as well as relicing but how about this effort on Gumtree;

Actually might be worth that for the neck alone, depending on what it is!

Thought you all might like another laugh. This "Fodera" is being offered on the local marketplace for about £360.
Come down and grab a bargain.

Love that track.. I believe it's a mu-tron pedal he's using there?

I'd heard 'dynaflanger' used with a 'wah' but you may be right.

Dweezil goes for the sound towards the end of this (28 and a bit mins and at 34:30) a lot of the sound is simply the guitar and pedal (s) left to their own devices

I was looking for a neck for a SX jazz that I bought recently. A decent one was around £100 plus shipping so I thought I might as well get complete Harley Benton for a few quid more.
Perhaps you could tell me what's going on here. The Allen bolt is missing so I'm assuming it's had it?

There doesn't appear to be a truss rod either

Okay, thanks. Might not be easy to spot but there is a what appears to be a thread inset there, you can just see it. Would the truss rod screw into that?

Yes. Thin snake torch may prove useful. With strings loose and preferably removed for a few hours in even temp room look up the guitar from the bridge in a horizontal plane and look for any twist in the neck. It isn't necessarily the end of the world with a new truss screw. Decent Luthier should be able to sort for you.

So that's a screw that passes all the way down into the neck and located in a threaded billet?
The truss rod is missing then?
There's no twist in the neck but it's obviously bowed forward.
