Fits older American Standard perfectly

Bought this to bolt onto my old Fender American Standard Stratocaster body. Perfect fit, like it was made for the body. Nice dark rosewood, perfect fretwork. And, the nut slots are nearly totally finished! Requires maybe just a tiny bit of slot finishing, at most. Highly recommended, I like this better than the American Professional neck.

No fuss neck

I have tried many Lic. by fender necks for allot less and have been disappointed with them all, especially the Mighty mite neck...and I always come back to this neck...it requires very little work and the holes are pre-drilled so if it just won't fit in the neck pocket (or what ever the reason) and you want to return it, you can. I gave this four stars because it's not a nice thick V like on the re-issue or 50's pro strats... but, this neck comes as close to a soft V as you are going to get with a 9.5 radius and most others claiming the same are not even close. Save your dough and spring for this neck for all your builds or replacements. You won't be sorry you did. ...I would however like to see a soft V neck with a rosewood fret board and 9.5 or 10 radius. Anyway, good job on this neck Fender!

By Neil M.

Bought this to bolt onto my old Fender American Standard Stratocaster body. Perfect fit, like it was made for the body. Nice dark rosewood, perfect fretwork. And, the nut slots are nearly totally finished! Requires maybe just a tiny bit of slot finishing, at most. Highly recommended, I like this better than the American Professional neck.

With its meticulous craftsmanship from the renowned Ensenada, Mexico facility, this genuine Fender Player Series Telecaster guitar neck is the epitome of classic design meets modern playability. Boasting a "modern C" profile, this neck is engineered for comfort, making it a favorite among guitarists who demand both precision and ease during their performances.

The neck features a 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard, revered for its resilience and contribution to producing a bright, articulate tone. With 22 medium jumbo frets, players can experience a versatile playing field suitable for various music genres and playing styles. The maple fingerboard not only enhances playability but also adds a vintage aesthetic that appeals to players with a taste for timeless instruments.

Attention to detail is evident in the pre-slotted nut with "pilot" string location grooves, which simplifies the process of string spacing and ensures a flawless setup. The back of the neck is finished with a smooth satin coating, reducing friction and allowing for seamless transitions up and down the neck.

True to Fender's legacy of quality and authenticity, each neck is serialized and stamped, featuring the genuine "Original Contour Body" headstock decal, a testament to its heritage and a mark of genuine craftsmanship. This replacement neck is designed to fit seamlessly with a Fender or Squier by Fender guitar body, providing an authentic upgrade or restoration opportunity.

Please note that while Fender genuine replacement necks are crafted to the highest standards, they have not been pre-mounted to guitar bodies. As such, nut slots require professional cutting, and additional installation procedures such as fret work and neck pocket fitting may be necessary to achieve the perfect custom setup for your instrument.

Choose this Fender Player Series Telecaster neck for its blend of rustic charm and modern functionality, backed by a brand synonymous with musical excellence. Whether you're looking to replace, upgrade, or build your dream guitar, this neck stands as a testament to Fender's commitment to quality and the musician's pursuit of authentic, classic sound.
