This replacement neck is the perfect way to give your Tele a classic 1951-style playing feel.This replacement neck is for a Fender or Squier® by Fender guitar.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.
