Fender Fat Roasted Maple Telecaster® Neck | Haggerty’s Music

Maximize your tone and stability with Fender’s largest neck profile. The genuine Fender® Fat Roasted Maple Telecaster® Neck is a premium upgrade designed for players who demand substantial real estate and rock-solid performance. Crafted at Fender’s Ensenada, Mexico facility, this neck brings a high-end, custom-shop feel to your favorite Telecaster® or Squier® project.

Now available at Haggerty’s Music, this neck is the ultimate choice for players seeking the enhanced sustain and stunning aesthetics that only roasted maple can provide.

The "Fat" U-Shape: Built for Presence

For guitarists who find standard modern necks too thin, the Fat Tele® neck offers maximum mass and stability. At a consistent .990" thickness at both the 1st and 12th frets, this is the largest profile in the Fender replacement lineup.

  • Ergonomics for Large Hands: The chunky, rounded Large "U" shape with high shoulders is ideal for players who prefer to rest their thumb on the back or side of the neck, providing a supportive, comfortable grip.
  • The Roasted Maple Advantage: The specialized roasting process removes moisture and impurities, making the wood highly resistant to humidity changes. This results in a neck that stays true through the seasons while delivering a distinctive tonal depth and a rich, dark look.
  • Supreme Playability: Hand-rolled fingerboard edges and a silky-smooth satin urethane back finish provide a "broken-in" feel and fast movement. The headstock face is finished in gloss urethane for a classic, high-end appearance.
  • Modern Performance Specs: A 9.5" radius roasted maple fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo frets allow for fluid lead lines and choke-free bends across a standard 25.5" scale length.
