I build guitars professionally and wanted to try out one of these kmise paddle head necks for some budget/student builds.Neck fit and finish is surprisingly well done. Even the fretwork is better than expected for this price, though it will still require leveling and dressing by someone who knows what they're doing if you want to get the lowest action possible. It could see someone putting a neck like this on a budget build without additional leveling and just playing with a higher action.One concern is that the spacing of the nut to center of first fret is wide by about .025". This is /just barely/ within what I would consider an acceptable tolerance, and would translate to 4-6 cent off perfect intonation between the nut and first fret. This isn't the end of the world, and most people cannot reliably differentiate between a few cent in tuning, but even slightly wider and the neck would require serious surgery. Spacing between subsequent frets is dead-on, and the fretwork is acceptably parallel with the nut.Because this is a single neck and a single data point, I'll give kmise the benefit of the doubt for five stars because nut/fret spacing issue does technically fall within acceptable for this particular neck. It's just really pushing that tolerance.A few additional notes:-Heel runs a bit wider than most other OEM necks I've used-Nut wasn't the best, but definitely acceptable. Required additional filing to get the best action possible, which is typical for really any neck.-Fretboard was level with no twist or waves-Truss rod functioned smoothly in both directionsYou really can't beat the price for an overall acceptable neck without buying direct from an eastern factory.

It fit the body nice and tight, I barely had to sand it a bit. The frets are small as expected, which is fine with me. The frets need sanding on the edge...also expected. The nut needed a bit of sanding on the edges. It's very straight. The only real issue is that the fret markers are just slightly off, but fret spacing is perfect. For the price, I would do it again, I may even attempt a refret for stainless frets since there isn't much to lose here. The price definitely increases my courage to work on it.Update: now that I finished the project, the neck plays wonderfully and barely needed adjustment. Fret ends needed sanding but not much past that.

Shipped as shown. Looks good out of the box. Quality workmanship: comfortable radius, inlay nicely done, frets playable with minimal additional setup. The fingerboard is sanded only - no finish of any kind, so needed to seal and finish.

The title really says it all. It’s a nice maple neck, and you can tell it really is just by cutting the headstock. The frets could use some work, as some are sharp and one of them is burnt on the side from putting them in. But overall, it’s nice.This specific Gibson style neck does have a satin oil finish that I sanded down and has a telecaster style heel, meaning that it can fit in Epiphone Les Paul special models and any guitar with a telecaster neck pocket.

Disclaimer: I bought this product with the plan to use it unconventionally. I ordered "off the menu", so some points may not apply to traditional use. However, I discovered some problems with the product that are of note to all purchasers.As mentioned above, I bought this neck with the plan to remove the fret board and replace it with an ebony one from StewMac. These are the pros and cons to this neck, some of which were only apparent once the fret board was removed:The Good:The neck itself is straight.There is a full truss rod on the inside of the neck. I'm not sure about its functionality as my build hasn't been completed yet, but the rod is there.The paddle head is very large.The neck is level and flat from the heel to the back of the paddle (it sits firmly on a table).The neck has a very light finish on it, so it's easily sanded off.The neck wood is pretty good and easily workable.The truss rod is protected by some kind of plastic/glue combination inside the neck.The Bad: (most of which I didn't care about, since my build only needed the neck itself.)The fret board had some minor bowing and was not evenly planed.The nut is complete plastic garbage.The inlays look fine, but upon removal, are a weird rubbery-plastic composite.The fret board wood looked decent to play on, but upon removal, was very dry and stringy. Yuck.The frets are thin and probably would need to be replaced if played a lot.The Ugly:The fret board was a bear to remove. The conventional heat gun/iron approach wasn't fully successful. I ended up opening a pack of new wood chisels and hammering out the fret board.The heel wasn't shaped correctly. It was close, but I ended up routing it down to match my template to get a perfect fit. This is problematic because I used the original Strat/Tele schematics for the neck pocket, and the template was cut on a laser machine (GlowForge)... so I know that the template was correct and the neck was not.The REALLY Ugly:It became apparent only after removing the fret board that a good chunk of the heel (the corner) had been damaged or removed during production. Instead of throwing out the neck, the manufacturer filled the corner with a gross acrylic-like substance which, of course, chipped when I had to re-rout the heel. I had to refill and reshape the corner with wood filler and scrap flakes from the router.TLDR; I would only buy this neck if you have a wood shop or good woodworking skills at your disposal. Sure, this neck might fit your build out-of-the-box, but I wouldn't take that gamble unless you are a very lucky person. ;) However, if you need a neck for a weird build and don't need the fret board, this is a very good and affordable option.

I was nervous buying this, but I’d put the one I received equivalent to the one on my Bullet Mustang. It’s not glorious, but it’s easily worth the money for a generic neck. The maple is nice and tough, but cut easily with a jigsaw. I’d probably buy another in the future.

A well finished guitar neck for the DIY guitar builder. Have no complaints to report. How do they make it for the price ?

I bought two of these necks, and they are beautiful, and the fretwork is good. There is some invitable fret sprout, but that’s not a problem. But this is a bass neck, scale length of 32â€. Oh well…

Absolutely gorgeous piece of maple, especially for the price, fretboard had no cracks whatsoever, only thing was some of the lower frets which needed to be cleaned up a bit.
