Are Stratocaster necks interchangeable?
All necks are interchangeable to a point, but all neck pockets are different. DO not expect a new neck, or a different old neck, to fit perfectly.
Can you put an American neck on a Mexican strat?
It will fit. The extra fret just hangs over the pickguard. The new 2015 deluxe strats have a different heel which would require some modification. Standard strat necks and/or ones from earlier years will fit just fine unless it’s a really old 3-bolt neck.
Can you put a Les Paul neck on a Stratocaster?
LP’s necks are fatter. You’d need to somehow wedge wood between the neck to have it fit tight with the body, but slapping an LP neck on a strat, you could just have a luthier cut away the body to accomidate the neck.
Are 21 and 22 fret necks interchangeable?
The only difference between the 21 and 22 fret neck is that the 22’s fretboard extends a little past the neck pocket. Scale length and all that is the same. Strat necks are pretty much interchangeable.
Are all Fender neck pockets the same?
Most everyone makes neck pockets that are 5/8″ or . 625″ deep except Fender. Back in the day Fender did use a 5/8″ deep neck pocket but they don’t anymore and that is important, at least on current Teles and Strats since 1996, and maybe more from my measurements. But you can’t be sure every Fender model is the same.
Is a Strat or Les Paul easier to play?
A Les Paul has lower string tension when compared to a Strat with the same gauge strings. This makes a Les Paul easier to play. An easy way to deal with the longer scale length of a Strat is to use lighter gauge strings. Lighter gauge strings reduce string tension, which makes the Strat easier to play.
Can you put a 24 fret neck on a Strat?
On a strat, the neck pickup is located exactly where the 24th fret would be. You will need to move the neck pickup closer to the bridge if you want to fit a 24 fret neck onto it. You’ll probably also need to route the neck pocket as well.
