About this item

  • Road Worn Nitro finish maple neck
  • Late ‘50’s Thick Soft “V” profile; 7.25”-radius maple fingerboard
  • 21 vintage tall frets; pre-slotted synthetic bone nut
  • Vintage-style truss rod adjustment


Product Description

Nitrocellulose lacquer is a vintage-accurate finish that wears gradually over time, creating a pleasantly worn-in appearance with use. Our Road Worn Nitro finish is hand-distressed to faithfully recreate the look and feel of a well-loved vintage instrument. This genuine Fender Stratocaster neck is crafted at our Ensenada, Mexico manufacturing facility. Featuring a late ‘50’s Thick Soft “V” neck profile and 7.25"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets, for the comfortable playing feel of a vintage instrument. The synthetic bone nut is pre-slotted with "pilot" grooves for accurate spacing when filing the final string slots. The perfect way to give your Strat authentic Fender feel, this replacement neck even sports our famous “spaghetti” logo on the headstock. Because Fender genuine replacement necks have not been mounted to guitar bodies, nut slots must be cut by qualified personnel. Other installation processes may be required, such as fret work, fitting the neck to the neck pocket, and other instrument setup procedures. Your local FMIC Authorized Service Center can install genuine replacement necks; find locations near you in the “Support” section of fender.com.

This neck is a "road worn" maple neck made in Mexico. The relic work is pretty nice. Edges are even a bit rounded. What needs a little bit of personal work is of course the nut, the frets and the holes for the vintage tuners.The fret work that I had to do on this neck was minor leveling of 3 frets and smoothen all the fret edges.The tuner holes was a little bit more challenging because they come pretty snug.Overall it's what I expected to do. I recommend this Strat neck for up to the Vintera Series but not for the high end Strat models

The product [as used] had an indentation in the neck at third fret, as the product was 'road worn' the damage was acceptable.

What I did not like was the skunk strip seemed to pop out at the 2 to 4 fret... there was a hump as if it was not pressed properly....so I pressed it in manually as much as I could...still hump and the edges of the skunk stripe at the mentioned frets was not seated and I could feel it..So next I took a 600 grit sand paper and masking tape and sand it down...then 1000 grit sand paper...The nut also seems to be dodgy..might have to replace...I bought this because I wanted a maple board with 7.25 radius...for this much money it should be flawless...
