Description
This is the neck that defined an era: a full “U”-shaped profile that fills your hand and rewards a firmer grip, built at Fender’s Ensenada, Mexico facility to genuine Stratocaster® specs. If you’ve been chasing that ’70s feel—thicker, rounder, more substantial than the slim modern C-necks most players default to—this is the real deal, not a reissue approximation.
- Vintage-style 3-bolt neck mount, just like the originals
- Chunky “U”-shaped neck profile for a substantial, vintage-correct grip
- Maple fingerboard with a period-correct 7.25″ radius
- 21 vintage-style frets
- Crafted at Fender’s Ensenada, Mexico manufacturing facility
The tighter 7.25″ radius plays into that same vintage character—rounder under the fingers, especially noticeable if you’re used to flatter modern boards, and it pairs naturally with vintage-style bending technique rather than fighting against it. The 3-bolt mount and accompanying micro-tilt adjustment (standard on this mounting style) also make dialing in neck angle straightforward without pulling the neck for shims.
Whether you’re restoring a ’70s-spec build, replacing a worn-out original, or just curious what all the fuss over
