Marc S Posted April 4 Posted April 4 (edited) Squier fretless jazz neck, in really good condition. There is a tiny "ding", barely noticeable on the back of the neck around fret position 10. The fingerboard (Ebanol?) has some very very light surface marking, which you can't feel. Neck is nice & straight, and the truss rod works smoothly. Loaded tuners included - they're in great condition and turn smoothly. Bought with the intention of finding a suitable Squier body - but never got around to using, as I traded a fretless bass instead (Spector). It's such a nice neck, I think it needs to be used. I prefer not to post. Collection from Barry, South Wales, though I sometimes travel about, so a meet may be possible. No trades - I need to thin the collection. Edited 57 minutes ago by Marc S 3
Marc S Posted April 5 Author Posted April 5 I think this neck is from a "Vintage Modified" series bass? But perhaps someone on here will know for sure. I once owned a VM P/J precision, and ended up wishing I'd kept the body, to use with this neck. The VM series really were pretty good quality instruments.
Marc S Posted April 5 Author Posted April 5 I must admit, I thought all Fender & Squier neck & pocket dimensions would be fairly standard - but I once compared this to a MIM Fender, and the neck was just a tad too tight for the neck pocket.... of course, a bit of filing / sanding the neck heel would have helped. (I didn't opt for that body though).

Marc S Posted April 7 Author Posted April 7 PM replied to. Sadly, I've had several postal "issues" lately, both sending and receiving parcels 😞
Marc S Posted 20 hours ago Author Posted 20 hours ago Just a heads up on this neck - I've got someone local coming to take a look tomorrow. 1
