Bought a used 2004 Jagmaster in good shape. I want to replace the neck with a Moses Graphite neck. Will they fit w/out any mods? I don't do the whammy bar thing, what hardtail bridge can I buy w/out any mods?

Thanks in advance!

Honestly, it sounds like you bought the wrong guitar for your purpose(s).

A neck swap isn't that big of a deal but ditching the trem for a hardtail bridge is a major issue.

Just make sure the neck you buy is the same scale. Measure the exact distance from the nut to the bridge saddles......that will be your scale length. Any Fender style neck of the proper scale length should drop right in. As for the bridge, forget the hardtail idea......You will never have a hardtail without modding the body. The closest thing you can do is just install 5 springs in the trem cavity, and crank those trem claw plate screws to bring the bridge down to the body, then block the trem with a block of wood in the rear of the guitar. :)
