Do anyone make a wide Tele neck. Every one I've got is 1.675 inch at the nut.

Warmoth has two tele necks that are 1 & 3/4 inches at the nut. But they are very expensive with exotic woods. I don't know if they would make something more affordable with that nut width.

Paul: Are you talking about IN STOCK necks?
If so your answer may be true, but otherwise is IMO somewhat misleading.
I just went to the Warmoth site and priced out a custom order Tele neck.
It came in at around $180.
It was NOT exotic woods, though (maple neck with maple FB).
HOWEVER, there are a couple of "notes" to that.
Anyone can PM me for more info.
One note is that not all nut widths are available in the different "construction" types. The widest widths are not available in the Vintage construction necks.
FWIW, I ordered a Strat neck from them last year.
In general I was very pleased, but there are a couple of comments/suggestions for anyone else that is thinking of ordering from them.
BTW, those comments have NOTHING to do with their customer service, which in my experience was first rate.
They also in general have nothing to do with the overall quality, which IMO is also first rate.
I absolutely would order from them again.
I have no experience with other manufacturers.
I was at one time looking at USA Custom Guitars.
However, last year they merged with MJT, were moving their operations back east, and were closed for new orders temporarily. |
