The 1957 Strat Feel: A Neck with a Characterful "V" Profile
Fender necks have never been frozen in time: shape, thickness, and feel have evolved over the years. With the American Vintage II series, Fender brings back historically faithful profiles, and this 1957 Stratocaster neck is an excellent example. Its one-piece maple construction, 7.25" radius, and "V" profile offer an expressive grip, particularly appreciated by guitarists who like to feel the neck "guide" their playing, both in chords and lead parts.
A Fender Replacement Neck: Best Installed by a Technician for Optimal Setup
This neck is designed as a replacement part for Fender or Squier by Fender guitars. As with any genuine Fender neck not factory-installed on a body, certain installation steps may be necessary to achieve a flawless setup: fitting to the neck pocket, fretboard leveling, adjustments, and general adaptation to your instrument.
Pre-Slotted Bone Nut: Ideal Base, Essential Finalization
The bone nut is pre-slotted with "pilot" grooves: this facilitates string spacing and positioning during final sizing. To ensure tuning accuracy, comfort, and stability, the final slotting must be performed by qualified personnel.
