Can anyone help with identifying what this neck has been taken from?

I bought this a few months ago from another BC'er being advertised as Precision neck however when i came to fit it to a bitsa Precision I am making up I realised that it is a 22 fret rather than the conventional 20 fret version. As a result the intonation is way out.

The headstock is narrower than normal as well. It has a Mex serial number MN66xxxx.

Basically the neck is of no use to me for the reason stated above and I don't want to get involved in repositioning the bridge or more dramatic woodwork. Thus would like to re-advertise it but would like to be able to accurately describe what the neck came off.

Any guidance will be most appreciated.

The headstock looks slightly smaller than normal so I would say that it came off a [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/pics-fender-cowpoke-special-312480/"]cowpoke[/url]

Thanks for that guys.

Well you live and learn as I must confess I've never heard of a Cowpoke Precision before but it certainly seems to tick all of the boxes in respect of the neck.

I can't think that calling a bass a 'Cowpoke' Precision would have been one of Fender's smartest marketing decisions though or maybe something was lost in the American to British translation. :)
