I have a pre-cbs duo sonic body. Can I use either a early 90's MIM Duo Sonic neck or a more recent Squier Duo Sonic neck? I believe the scale is the same but will the neck pocket fit? Thank you.

as far as I know, the 90's duo sonics had 19 frets and a 22" scale. My buddy had a '66 duo, but I can't remember too much about it. The classic vibe duo sonics have a full 25 3/4" scale and 21 frets. I'm at a loss for you dude. Try the lounge section, it has more activity.

The modern short-scale necks are not the same scale as your old body was made for. But, you can use a musicmaster neck from the same period ;) These necks are cheap, even for the real deal vintage ones. Yous should just buy one from eBay and be done with it. :) Drop $300 or so on an original neck, if that's all you need to complete your guitar.
