Man, I gotta tell you about this neck I’ve been messing with. It’s a roasted maple neck from Leo Jaymz, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey.
So, I saw this thing online, and it looked pretty sweet. I mean, roasted maple? Sounds fancy, right? I had this old TL-style guitar body lying around, just begging for a new neck. This one is supposed to be compatible, so I thought, “Why not?” I clicked that “buy” button and waited.
When it finally arrived, the first thing I noticed was how smooth it felt. I’ve gotten this neck twice now. This one is seriously polished. I mean, they really went to town on it. The mahogany body I had was already looking good, but this neck… it just took things to a whole new level.
Now, I’m no professional luthier or anything, but I’ve tinkered with guitars for a while now. Bolting this neck on was pretty straightforward. The screw holes lined up perfectly, which was a relief. I’ve had some bad experiences in the past with that, let me tell you.
Once I got it all set up and strung up, I gave it a strum. It is like a whole new guitar. Honestly. It was like putting on a new pair of shoes. But for my guitar. Yeah, that’s the best way to put it. So, I’ve been playing it for a couple of weeks, and I’m really digging it.
And the wood is pretty! This thing is not only a sight to behold with its top and body. Every time I pick it up and touch it, I feel like a rockstar.
If you’re looking to upgrade your TL-style guitar, I’d definitely recommend checking out this Leo Jaymz roasted maple neck. It’s a solid piece of wood, feels great, and it won’t break the bank. Plus, you get to say you have a “roasted maple” neck, which just sounds cool.
