Look what I just nabbed

The person I got from told me it said 98 on the neck, but like you said, the serial number brings up the mid 80's. The neck is quite thin compared to my Highway One or my mim. It's neat and plays really nice now that I messed with the set-up. The neck has about the right bow, at least to me, that I haven't taken off the neck. I bought it with the intention of making a couple of dollars toward the second Highway One that I want. My first has the HSS config and now I want one with three singles.(blonde with rosewood) If I keep the CIJ I'm going put inserts in the neck so that adjustments won't have you removing wood with the screws. I used the inserts and machine screws with the strat I built from parts and it feels like an iron connection. I recommend using inserts to anyone removing a neck from a bolt on guitar.
