Fender American Standard Stratocaster Neck Maple Fretboard Open-Box

Fender replacement necks are made at Fender manufacturing facilities to the same specifications as those used on Fender's instruments. U.S.-made necks have detailed frets, satin finishes on the back and hand-rolled fingerboard edges for comfortably smooth playability. This U.S.-made Fender Stratocaster guitar maple neck features a slim “modern C” profile and 9.5”-radius maple fingerboard with 22 versatile medium jumbo frets. The nut is pre-slotted with “pilot” string location grooves to make spacing a breeze when performing the final string slot filing. (Please note: Final string slot filing and nut shaping modification is required to ensure proper fit and performance.) For true Fender authenticity, it's also serialized and stamped, with genuine "Made in U.S.A" and "Original ContFender's Body" headstock decals. This replacement neck is for a Fender or Squier by Fender guitar 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. This is an open-box item in excellent condition.
