Rick2 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I am looking for a replacement neck for a Gibson Sonex body. It doesn't matter if it is an original Sonex neck or something else as long as it fits properly. I've searched eBay and Reverb, but nothing ever comes up. Any ideas on where else to look or which non-Sonex necks will fit? Would any Sonex owner be willing to proved length, width, height measurements of the heel of their neck?

ksdaddy Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Gibson made a few bolt-ons in the early-mid 80s, so you might expand your search to include Challenger and Invader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick2 Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Thanks ksdaddy. I'll look into both of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard McCoy Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Just buy another Sonex fallen into disrepair and use its neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it is just as difficult to find a donor husk as it is to find just the neck. Please let me know where to look if you know of some place that has one available.

Noble B Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I was wondering if you ever found a replacement neck for your Gibson Sonex. I’m also on the hunt for a replacement neck, as I’m trying to restore the one that I bought originally in 1981. Thanks for your input.
