'50s-spec Roasted Maple Tele Neck The Fender Roasted Maple Vintera Mod '50s Telecaster Neck may just be the upgrade your Tele is clamoring for. Roasted until it reaches optimal dryness and beauty, this maple neck is more resistant to humidity shifts and temperature changes than non-roasted necks. The '50s-era Soft "V" profile gives this neck a handfeel that's straight out of the old school, with plenty of wood in the palm and yet clearance enough for thumb-over players. Together with its 9.5" fretboard radius and 21 medium-jumbo frets, the Fender Roasted Maple Vintera Mod '50s Telecaster Neck has something for all eras of Fender fans. Note: Every neck and guitar is different, and a final setup, including filing the nut slots and a final fret leveling, may be required after installation on your guitar.
