Authentic 1963 Telecaster Neck Feel with Vintage-Spec Details
The Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster Neck is a genuine replacement neck designed to bring an authentically early-’60s feel to compatible Fender or Squier by Fender guitars. Its 1963 “C” profile is paired with a round-laminated Rosewood fingerboard and a 184.2 mm (7.25”) radius, giving the neck the curved vintage playing surface associated with the period.
Twenty-one vintage-tall frets provide a traditional fret layout with a little extra height under the strings, while clay dot position markers include the narrow 12th-fret spacing found on the original-era design. A gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish completes the vintage-style neck feel, alongside heel-access vintage-style truss rod adjustment.
The bone nut is supplied with pilot string-location grooves rather than finished string slots. Final nut cutting, fret work, neck-pocket fitting and instrument setup may be required during installation and should be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this replacement guitar neck is an excellent option for Telecaster players and builders wanting genuine Fender construction with a 1963 “C” profile, 7.25” radius and period-correct appointments.
