Replacement Precision Bass Neck
We've been making bodies and necks for many years now, and we have achieved a reputation among builders and luthiers for producing wood products of the highest quality.
We use only hand selected hardwoods from the USA to ensure consistency and quality, and manufacture everything in our own factory. We run a relatively small operation, meaning we can make everything by hand, without the need for expensive CNC machinery, thus keeping the costs relatively low.
All our necks are made from high quality A grade North American Maple
All our necks are made from North American Hard Rock Maple. All frets are levelled, dressed & polished, meaning you can just bolt the neck on and you're ready to play (although a tweak of the truss rod may be necessary to get the action just the way you want it).
Bone nut fitted as standard
The high quality unbleached bone nut offers improved tonal qualities, and is pre-slotted to accommodate 9-42 gauge strings.
Please note: Final string slot filing and nut shaping modification may be required to ensure lower action, depending on your playing style.
All our necks are made to standard Fender dimensions
compatible with genuine Fender bodies
Please note:
We are unable to pre-drill the mounting holes into the back of the neck for you. This is because we cannot guarantee that the holes we drill will match 100% with the holes in your guitar body.
This is a very simple thing to do, and we have created a very easy-to-follow video tutorial on the subject which you can view here

Maple Precision Bass Neck
Immediately out of the box the finish on the neck looked and felt great. The frets were not polished to a mirror finish as the web site claims, but a quick going over with Stewmac fret erasers and the frets look stunning. Well levelled and crowned.
Now that the neck is on the bass, it is superb. One the neck relief was adjusted (which is only to be expected) it breathed new life into the instrument. Very pleased with it.
