contemporary neck, made in EU, ST style, headstock adjustment, all maple, half paddle, 9,5" radius

This one-piece maple neck is made in the EU (Czech Republic). High quality wood and frets and a perfect fit are prerequisites to a stable and perfectly playing guitar.

This neck is unfinished and only needs minimal sanding for finishing. It may need some minor adjustments to match it to the body you selected. The neck profile is an "oval C" shape but of course it’s possible to further shape the neck profile to your liking.

The 9,5" radius is the perfect middle ground between the vintage feel and good playability, especially for string bending. This radius has become an often chosen radius for many USA-made guitars of this type. For enhanced playability ‘narrow-tall’ 6105 style frets were used. The wide range dual-action trussrod access is at the headstock end, to allow for easy relief adjustment without having to unscrew the neck.

The half paddle design allows you to design your own headstock and stand out from the crowd. While high quality frets have been installed a minor fret dress may be necessary. Since wood is a natural product there will be wood grain differences between necks of the same specifications.
