Gentlemen,
I know this one is a long shot, but I just recently acquired a WG U5000 without a neckboard. The chassis looks to be in great shape (but with this model, who knows). All of the neckboard wires are still attached to the chassis, it is just the neckboard itself that is missing. If you have one, or know where I can find one, I would appreciate it greatly. I have already exhausted eBay and Bob Roberts. Thanks guys.
 
May also want to call wells gardener.. You'd be surprised what they have left kicking around.. Scored a few new 19" monitors last year from them after everyone said that they were all gone :)

Might get lucky!
 
I have a bunch, but I know they all have issues.....

I am in the process of trying a mounting method using eyelets for the color transistors...
Hopefully will keep them solidly anchored.
 
I tried Chad, Bob Roberts again, and even called WG to see if they had any hidden on a shelf somewhere. No go, so I figured I would bump this again and see what I can turn up.
 
Let me analyze my stash. If I have another one to spare I'll test it for you and sell it. I think I'm getting thin though, and I wanted to build up some more complete chassis from my parts.

You could give ebay a whirl, that's where I bought this lot of monitor parts.
 
Thanks Mecha. I have continued to monitor the listings on eBay for two months now, and U5000s have not come up, but you are right, if I cannot get one before then, I will just have to keeping checking on the listings.
 
I don't remember if I PMed you or not, but I wanted to say I don't have anymore to part with :(

additionally, you can look for U2000, K7400 and K7500s too, as they all share the same neckboard. hope that helps. good luck boss
 
I have one sitting on my bench.. Has typical tranny burn, but the traces are still there. I can give it a once over, plus I'm pretty sure I have 3 new transistors. Might be missing one heat sink though..

If you are out of luck.
 
Still no luck guys. I am looking for a neck board for my WG U5000. The U2000s, K7400s and K7500s all use the same neck board as the U5000, so that would work as well. I will even buy the entire chassis if I need to, just let me know.

There are differences in the neckboards between the models. Some have parts that others don't, and they won't work properly if mismatched.

I'm surprised Chad doesn't have any. I'll have to look through my boxes to see if I have any extra ones...
 
Not interested in the one I offered?
