Description
If you’ve ever wondered what a Telecaster felt like the year Eisenhower took office, this is your answer. Built at Fender’s Corona, California facility, this American Original ’50s neck reproduces the substantial 1952 “U”-shaped profile that early Tele players gripped—far chunkier than modern C-shapes, it fills the hand and adds a sense of mass and stability that a lot of players swear changes how the whole guitar resonates.
- 1952 “U”-shaped neck profile for that early vintage feel
- 9.5″ radius maple fingerboard, comfortable for both chording and bending
- 21 vintage-tall frets, taller and narrower than modern jumbo wire
- Genuine Fender American Original series, made in Corona, CA
The 9.5″ fingerboard radius sits right in the sweet spot between the era-correct vintage curve and modern playability, so you get that old-school look and response without fighting fret-out on bends. Vintage-tall frets bring a bit more string contact under your fingertips than the low, flat frets some vintage necks use, giving you a slightly firmer, more percussive attack.
Whether you’re restoring a project Tele, building a partscaster from the ground up, or just chasing a specific decade of tone and touch, this neck is a direct, no-compromise route to that early-’50s Telecaster experience—minus the relic’d finish and the vintage price tag.
