dickandjill Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Hi Will a Squier Bronco bass neck fit straight onto a Fender Mustang or Musicmaster bass body? (seen a "loaded" body for sale and would like to use it whilst looking for a correct neck) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The holes for the neck screws may be in a different position and the Squier neck heel may disagree sizewise with the neck pocket on the Fender body. In the worst case scenario, the bridge might not be in the correct position with reference to this neck rather than the Mustang/Musicmaster neck. If you have the neck handy, there's no harm in casually trying but I wouldn't waste much time trying to shoehorn it into the body, I'd sooner wait for something which was intended for the purpose to come along.

So it may be a bodge job until you get the proper neck! Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
