Fender Vintera II 50’s Nocaster Neck, 21 Vintage Tall Frets, Maple, U Shape

Crafted at our Ensenada, Mexico, manufacturing facility, this genuine Fender Vintera® II Nocaster® neck features an early-'50s thick "U"-shape that has thick shoulders for an authentic feel and tone. A 7.25" radius fingerboard with vintage-tall frets provide vintage comfort with ample room for big bends and expressive vibrato.

The nut is pre-slotted with "pilot" string location grooves to make spacing a breeze when performing the final string slot filing, and a gloss urethane finish offers smooth playability. For true Fender authenticity, it's also serialized and stamped, with genuine Fender headstock decal.

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.
