So I plan to purchase a new Fender jazz bass neck (maple) for my MIM jazz bass. I saw the video and it told me there should be no problem fitting the new necks onto an old body, with some minor touchups, but nothing too major.

MY question is: what if the neck is too small for the body?

I don't think that you are going to run into that problem. I have never had any problem fitting a fender jazz neck to a fender jazz body regardless of year build. Unless you are changing from a 20 fret to a 22 fret neck.

I don't think you'll have that issue.

I just replaced the neck on my MIM 08/09 Jazz Bass with a 2012 Fender Modern Player neck.Perfect fit.
