TO PHIL: Thanks for the link! I had no idea that specific service was provided by Gibson. I haven't contacted them yet (it's late night), but have perused the site. Will be getting in touch tomorrow. Thanks again. TO E-min7 Thanks for your input. It included one thing I had not thought through (scale length). I will report back now and again as I get information and make decisions (and maybe make progress toward my goal!!!) James D

I suppose the thread Title communicated the crux of my post. "Can Current (2023) Hummingbird Neck Be Installed onto a 1966 Hummingbird Body?" One thing I left out, to conserve space, would be the issue of how to acquire a new Hummingbird neck. but I'm assuming that someway/somehow that could be accomplished. But given that - would the 2023 Hummingbird neck and the 1966 Hummingbird body BE COMPATIBLE? The two halves of the dovetails "match"? etc. Assuming a HIGHLY skilled luthier, etc. Thanks. JamesD
