2012, first year for the american vintage '65, '59, & '56. If you want a pre-cbs strat but can't afford one... This is as close as you can get.
Flash coat nitrocellulose. Maple w\ rosewood veneer. Transition logo w\ 4 patent numbers. Correct spec tuner spacing, headstock perimeter, and neck shape for 1965. Built to spec like a real 1965 stratocaster neck. 1965 "C" shape. .81" 1st fret, .97" 12th fret, 1.65" nut width. 7.25" radius, vintage spec frets. Factory original bone nut, set up perfectly. Neck tag is included in the sale.
Tuners are not included in the sale. After a few messages of people asking for a price without them, I removed them & updated the listing. I left photos of them up as a reference. They will be listed with the tremolo as a packaged hardware set in another listing. Neck plate is not included, but is available for purchase in another listing. The rest of the parts to the guitar are in other listings as well.
Overall this neck is in excellent shape. It has some dings here and there that don't show up well in photographs. No issues with this neck, no breaks or cracks. Mounting holes accept screws perfectly and stay tight. Neck sits level in the neck pocket and has not been messed with. Truss rod functions perfectly, tuners as well. Frets are about 75% but have no issues with playability or intonation. Neck is straight as an arrow. The nitrocellulose is starting to darken it's tint as you can see around the butt of the neck. I love a dark tinted nitro neck! Neck is worn in perfectly, it's very comfortable. Not worn down to the wood, but well broken in.
I will make a discount if you'd like to purchase other listings for a packaged deal. Message me or make an offer with a deal you have in mind and we'll work something out.
