Squier Vintage Modified fretless jazz neck - spares or repair

 

I picked this neck up recently to make a bitsa, but it became apparent that:

  • The truss rod feels fine and turns in both directions - but doesn't seem to have an affect on the relief.  The relief with Fender Nickel Plated Steel .045-.150 strings is 0.25mm.
  • The fingerboard has some unevenness or playing wear, to the extent that a few notes sometimes choke or buzz slightly.  It's not awful, but it would be better if it got planed.  Higher action helps though - I found it playable enough with action at the 12th fret position of E string 2.5mm, G string 2.25mm.  But I think you wouldn't be able to get super low action.

 

Number of fret positions: 20
Radius: 9.5”
Material: Ebonol
Nut width: 1.5” (38.1mm)
Scale length: 34”
