    PC-1 Replacement Neck?

    I searched for this question already asked; if I missed it, please redirect me.

    I need a replacement neck for my PC-1! I can tell the story about me leaning it against the couch for " just a second ", or my daughter chasing the dog, or how I had to assess which was the greater love, child, pet, or guitar. Bottom line is I need a new neck. I don't want to repair break under the locking nut or clue the headstock together above the tuners. I can have one "custom made" for about $600, but for that price I'd rather it be official Jackson. Are there any other options?

    Thanks

    Look for a used Floyded PC-3.
    I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

    The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

      That's a difficult one. Maybe watch ebay for a PC1 with a decent neck, but trashed body. You might be waiting a long time, though. Otherwise, 24 fret strathead necks are fairly rare in the aftermarket.

        Musikraft can build you a 24 fret Strat head neck. Just use Charvel neck build option http://musikraft.com/product-info.php?pid436.html

        Use the drop down menus to select your preferences and make sure you select 2 1/4" neck heel.

          PC1 would be a 2 piece neck. Separate fretboard (flamed maple) from neck (quartersawn maple)

            Good luck.
            PC-1 necks are rare and expensive when they do pop up.
            Got any pics of the damage?
            A clean break can be structurally repaired to be as good as new.

            I just repaired a Charvel neck that had the headstock snapped clean off at the lock nut. Other than the cosmetics, it's as strong as it was the day they made it.

                Yep... for about $370 you will get one that is damn near identical in spec as an original.
