Fender Classic Series '72 Telecaster Thinline "U" Neck, 3-Bolt Mount, 21 Vintage-Style Frets, Maple FB

Crafted at our Ensenada, Mexico manufacturing facility, this vintage-style 3-bolt Telecaster Thinline guitar neck features a comfortable "U"-shaped profile and 7.25"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets. Although this neck features a 3-bolt design typical of '70s Teles, only the bottom two neck mounting pilot holes are available, giving you the flexibility to use this neck with many different guitar bodies.
The synthetic bone nut is pre-slotted with "pilot" string location grooves to make spacing a breeze when performing the final string slot filing, and a gloss urethane finish offers smooth playability.
