Fender® American Performer Stratocaster® Neck - Indian Rosewood

Fender® American Performer Stratocaster® Neck - Indian Rosewood

The Fender® American Performer Stratocaster® Neck - Indian Rosewood is a genuine U.S.-made replacement for players and builders who want classic Strat character with a modern, comfortable feel. It features a maple neck with walnut stripe and an Indian Rosewood fingerboard, together with a Modern “C” profile that feels natural for both chord work and expressive lead lines.

The large ’70s-style headstock recalls that unmistakable Fender era, while the 22 jumbo frets give you familiar control for bends and vibrato. The satin urethane finish delivers the smooth, fast feel you expect from modern Fender necks, staying comfortable even during long sessions. The tuner holes are drilled for modern Fender machines with a dual guide pin layout, making installation clean and accurately aligned.

This neck is designed to drop into Stratocaster®-style guitars with a 648 mm (25-1/2") scale length and a 4-bolt neck pocket, so it works both as a professional replacement and as a solid platform for ST-style custom builds. It comes with a pre-slotted synthetic bone nut, which speeds up installation, though a final custom setup is always recommended to dial in action and tuning stability.
