I've come to realise that I'm much more comfortable playing chunkier necks these days.
Does anyone know who makes the chunkiest (front to back) replacement P necks at all? I'm after a fat unlined fretless.
Cheers in advance.

Funnily, I've been talking to Fender USA about which of their precision necks are the chunkiest - but when it comes to wanting something truly massive? Well, go custom. I'd go to Jon at Shuker Guitars .co.uk who is well versed in making some really tasty necks!

Cheers dood :)
Shuker sounds good but also sounds expensive! I'll check him out now. 👍

Edit - ooo, £280 for a finished neck it seems! That would be doable. I'll ring Jon for a chat about it. Ta v much :)

That's a great price knowing what sort of quality Jon is well known for. Nice one!! No problem, Dood sends his regards!

I hear the Steve Harris sig has the chunkiest P neck. May be worth looking up sites like The Stratosphere that break Fenders up for parts!

Thanks Danny. It's a chunky fat unlined fretless neck I'm after though (see op)
Funny you should mention the Harris sig neck though, as I've thought about giving Shuker it's dimensions for my order if it's doable.

I once bought an Allparts Jazz bass neck and it was very chunky, front to back, compared to a normal Jazz neck.. I assume thier P bass necks are even chunkier.

My current 2015 Precision is the chunkiest neck, as in front to back/depth, that I`ve had. Standard Precision width, but a good handful of chunky depth. Maybe see how much Fender charge for a fretless one of these.
