My BC Rich Neck is broken

Holo · 02-22-2008, 08:56 AM

Hey guys! I need your advice about this situation. My Warlock falled down last night and now the neck is broken. Not complete but I can "move" the head a few millimeters. The tuning retained but I think the split will continue with the time.

Now, I don´t know what I should do. I don´t think that it can be pasted because the break is not "open". Which options do I have?

I would take it to a local luthier/guitar repair guy and find out what he has to say... More than likely they can fill the crack.

You can get replacement necks. Is it a set neck or bolt-on, because set necks are a lot more work to replace. I'm not sure about a repair to that area of the neck though as that is where the two pieces of wood join on some BC Rich's, but I can't tell from the pictures

I have dropped my guitar, thrown it around and it has never broken haha, and it's a piece of shit.

Those look only to be finish cracks to me.

You'll be alright getting that repaired... not as bad as the necks i've broken in my time.

I was at my local guitartech today and he told me that it ain´t bad as it looks like. He will fix it for 40 Euro.
