VIN-MOD replacement neck for Telecaster, quartersawn roasted maple, unfinished
Allparts “Select” represents the very best Allparts has to offer in terms of quality, features, and exclusivity. Produced in limited batches using only the finest materials, our Select series replacement necks offer compelling combinations of highly desirable specifications and high-end appointments.

Officially licensed by Fender® and made to exacting quality standards in Japan using quartersawn roasted maple, this Select series “Vin-Mod” neck offers Tele® fans a compelling blend of vintage and modern specs. With truss rod adjustment at the heel and 2-step vintage tuning key holes, this neck maintains a classic aesthetic. Combined with a flatter modern 10” fretboard radius and 21 tall/narrow frets, players can expect enhanced comfort, easier string bending and a "best of both worlds" playing experience. Unfinished, but spray-ready, this beauty is ready for your preferred finish.

Roasting the wood blanks prior to production enhances stability by reducing the moisture content down to around 7%.  The result is a more-resonant neck that’s stronger and less susceptible to changing weather conditions.  Roasting (or cooking) flamed maple also enhances the visual depth of the flame, accentuating the uniqueness of each neck.

Quartersawn wood blanks offer enhanced stability vs. the flatsawn neck blanks most necks are manufactured from. Roasting the wood further enhances stability by reducing the moisture content down to around 7%. The result is a more-resonant neck that’s stronger and less susceptible to changing weather conditions.
