There’s no denying the allure of a roasted maple neck. Resistant to humidity shifts and featuring a gorgeous, dark look, they have more sustain and add a unique note to the instrument’s voice.

This genuine Fender Jazz Bass neck is crafted at our Ensenada, Mexico manufacturing facility. Featuring a “vintage C” neck profile and 7.25"-radius maple fingerboard with 20 vintage frets, for classic playing feel. The synthetic bone nut is pre-slotted with "pilot" grooves for accurate spacing when filing the final string slots. The perfect way to give your Jazz Bass authentic Fender feel, this replacement neck even sports our famous “spaghetti” logo on the headstock.

Because Fender genuine replacement necks have not been mounted to guitar bodies, nut slots must be cut by qualified personnel. Other installation processes may be required, such as fret work, fitting the neck to the neck pocket, and other instrument setup procedures. Your local FMIC Authorized Service Center can install genuine replacement necks; find  locations near you in the “Support” section of fender.com.
