Does anyone know if the neck on the Squire '70's modified Jazz ( model 0326702521 ) is the same neck that is on the Geddy Lee jazz ?

Cosmetically it is the same (maple board, block inlays) although I've heard somewhere that the Geddy has painted inlays, the Squire has real block inlays. Not sure myself - both look and feel identical.

The Geddy neck is very thin (the thinnest Jazz neck out there?) and feels thinner than the Squire Modified, which itself is pretty playable. This is not scientific but based purely on feel in the hand.

Hope this helps a bit.

Thanks. The Geddy neck is designated as a " slim profile " neck, but has the same specs as most other Jazz necks. I don't see any other Jazz neck described like that.

There's a bit more on the GL neck at another Fender Lounge thread: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=65030
