Hey, where are you from??

There is a Japanese 1 for sale on ebay in the UK right now and 3 more in the US but the US ones have painted headstocks.

www.warmoth.com can make them I think, and http://www.allparts.uk.com has 1 in stock but I don't know what the quality is like. Your best bet is to be keep an eye on ebay! Or try and find someone who can fix your old neck.

If you're wanting one in the UK, talk to me! I'm selling one on Ebay right now and am probably the guy Firefly mentioned. Even if you're in the US, let me know, maybe we can find a way of striking a tasty deal.

Ah, my timing is off as ever then :) I bought a Jag and JM and I'm keeping the JM. It just feels better to me, more playable and the Jag feels a little odd. So the JM is going to get upgraded with a TOM bridge and 12" neck and the Jag is being parted out.

I've promised myself that when I hit certain performance goals as part of my 'Get Ultra Fit and Get My Body Fat Down To Some Ludicrous Level', the order for a custom JM neck will be put in. Blocks, binding and maybe even a mini-bar if I can afford it :D
