ABSTRACT:
A neck for a stringed musical instrument has a metallic frame running substantially the entire length of the neck to provide a fingerboard and also to provide support for a peghead at the outer or upper end of the neck. The peghead portion of the frame cooperates with a mounting plate which may be varied in shape to suit different peghead styles and arrangements of the machine heads attached to the peghead, thereby allowing identical frames to be used in making necks with various different peghead designs. In addition to the frame, a major portion of the neck is comprised of structural foamed plastic with the construction being such as to enable quantity manufacture of the necks at low unit cost.
