rockabilly69 Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I'd go for a new neck. Yes it can be fixed, but I think you would have more confidence in the guitar with a new neck, and it'll be like getting a new guitar. I think a good part of guitar tone comes from the neck. I hate a Tele with three different necks and they all made the guitar sound quite different. And they were all rosewood boards with the same neck shape and size!
Joe Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 If you do get a new neck will you have a 3 or 5 piece neck installed? Also, do you think it would have broken if it had a laminated neck originally?
big bob Posted January 24, 2015 Author Posted January 24, 2015 Weekend update. I put a call in to Heritage and talked to the guys about a new fancy neck. Haven't herd back, but knowing Heritage it will probably take some time, especially with NAMM going on. Tonight the band plays its first show with our new singer. Wish I could take the 575. I Know I'm taking the 170, probably the stat as a backup. Thought about using the sweet 16, kinda afraid to since the Fall. I'd say fasten your seat belts, but I don't think this thread will be moving to fast.
big bob Posted January 24, 2015 Author Posted January 24, 2015 Hey guys... Something is not right??? I did not add the fancy neck link!!!! Goes to some add for a shirt? I think we been hacked.
mars_hall Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 You may be the only one seeing a fancy neck/shirt link. I am not seeing it. Sometimes add-ins in Chrome show weird things and redirect to a related string search, if that is what you see
HANGAR18 Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 I see it in both posts above from my desktop computer when I hover over the words fancy neck. Goes to a dealtime.com url There is also an embedded alt tag that says the link was put there by "VigLink". Look for software on your device by that name.

TalismanRich Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 I was wondering what BB was talking about. No hotlinks showed up in my browser. Now we know! This is the type of crap that really gets to me. Its one step up from hijacking in my book.
Millennium Maestro Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 On a side note(On topic) Jim stated you called about a new neck and that the Dickie shirts was definitely an impression in your favor. My advise, dont get crazy on the replacement specs. Jim is away for a couple weeks, be patient! PS. when I received a broken necked new guitar, it took 18 months to replace the split blocks, large headstock, Ebony neck.
HANGAR18 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140115100314AA69Bk9 Crap. It started inserting links through my Opera browser as well. I've also seen the issue in posts from kidsmoke and Millenium Maestro.
Administrator Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Off topic: The VigLink thing looks like it's related to the Tapatalk app API plugin. I'll see what I have to do to get that rectified. Oddly, when I use Tapatalk on my iPad, I don't see any links.
gpuma Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 On my android phone I use chrome and the mobile version of the hoc and I see no link. on my android tablet I use chromeband the full site and I see the links
TalismanRich Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I just had a thought.... I never see the VigLink stuff. It turns out that I've had "DoNotTrack", now know as Blur, in my browser for a long time. When I checked it, sure enough, it listed VigLink as one of the blocked tracking sites, along with Google, Twitter and Facebook. Its amazing how many places track you these days. I have had sites with 10 or 15 trackers being blocked. Maybe "Eagle Eye" is closer than we think! You never know when "the Man" is watching.
