I'm sorry if this questions been asked, but I'm getting one of the 2018 FSR Squier Affinity HH Tele's, the metallic orange one to be specific. What is the neck pocket size on these & would a Lic Fender Tele Baritone Conversion neck fit? Appreciate any help with this. Thanks.

If I were a gambling man, I'd bet big money on that this question has not been asked before... :wink:

The FSR models usually have just cosmetic mods for the base model, so the neck pocket should in all likelihood be as in a regular Affinity Tele; in other words a standard FMIC Tele pocket..

Of course it's none of my business, but your question makes me wonder. The price of a conversion neck vs. the price of the guitar - and of course modding an instrument before you even have it..?

Yeah, the FSR is basically referring to it having a matching headstock. Guitar is $180..I can get the neck for $150. I have the hardware already. Basically I love the paint/finish on this guitar, like the hardware finish too. As far as modding...I love modding...My main guitar is a Fender Blacktop Baritone Tele, & the only thing original is the body & neck...Would love to have another as a back up or in a different tuning, but the Blacktop Baritone Tele's don't come up for sale often & when they do they're $900 to $1200. Can't do that..So I'll buy a cheaper guitar & mod it.

OK, point taken, makes sense.

Didn't know that the BT BT prices are in such an upswing. And at the same time, the Vintage Modified line (VM Baritone Jazzmaster…) is on hold.

Note to FMIC Marketing & Confusion Department; maybe time to get the factories make some baritone instruments. :wink:
