Yeah, I'm not going to watch that, just imagining: "All the crazy kids these days are putting mini-pedals on banjos. Get ahold of this new, exciting trend. Mini-pedal banjos all up in this hizzle! Put mini-pedals on your banjo today for the best, contemporary toanz!"
I haven't watched that video and probably won't because I'm sure it's better how I imagine it, as a Tim and Eric sketch.
I watched the whole thing.
It was pointless.
But he pointed out how there were only two companies that used "booth babes" to draw in people (Gibson was one).
And how he liked that most other companies used up and coming artists to demo stuff.

Sorry, should've put a disclaimer before it that read "DO NOT WATCH!".

I got something out of it, as he pointed out that other companies besides neunaber are doing the "clean amp in pedal format" thing I've wanted for ages.

No link. I saw a different thread here. Emailed. Apparently it was posted on a Facebook thread, too.
Not cheap. $750 for a guitar neck.

Gotcha, thanks. I need to consider one for this guitar:
I used to love this guitar until I obtained an EGC and now I can't stop playing the EGC, mostly because I love the neck. It's an easy guitar to play.
Did he say how he fits the neck to an existing guitar? Do you need to send him the guitar?

On IG they said they do runs every few months but somehow I still miss out. I wish Bastin would make some more. There is another company that is going to start doing bolt on necks but I personally don't like their aesthetic.

Yeah, I saw that one, too, and didn't make the connection.
$750 is waaaayyyy outta my price range right now, though.

I'm assuming these will be a standard fender style pocket. Can't say specifically. Only question asked so far is rounded or straight heel.

Dude, I recently saw that Bob's Burgers episode, and I was like "hey, it's that guy's on ilovefuzz profile picture"
