Hi.

I recently acquired a prewar Gibson TB-3 tenor. Looking for a 5 string neck to fit a 1927 Gibson No-hole arch top pot.

Thanks!
Kevin

Recommend you order from Sullivan Banjo in Alabama. Eric Sullivan will get you exactly what you need.

Yes. I sent him an email. Haven't heard back. Do any used ones ever come on the market?

Eric’s out for the week, he might be checking and replying to emails while out, but in case not that’s why you’re not hearing back. A+ guy though.

Keep in mind that you can't really order any old neck and bolt it right up to your pot.

It will most likely need some heel fitting work to get the action set properly.

Also, don't get a double cut peghead, that is not period-correct for a 1927 and would personally bug me to no end.

Also, expect 12+ months delay if you're getting a neck made today.
