miles'tone Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 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.

Dood Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles'tone Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) 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.

dannybuoy Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

gjones Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) 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. Edited July 9, 2016 by gjones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megallica Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I seem to remember the roger waters neck had a chunky profile? Not fretless though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
