Hey everyone,

As an added service to you, we’re now offering replacement Fender necks and bodies direct from the Fender website. These are Genuine Fender Parts straight from our guitar production lines, allowing you to maintain your instrument's authenticity and playability. We like to think of it as another way for us to support you as a Fender player. You can find our selection of modern and vintage-style necks and bodies for Strats, Teles, J Basses and P Basses on the Fender Necks & Bodies page. Not finding the neck or body you are looking for? Please let us know as we will be adding to our selection in the future. We’ve also provided a comprehensive FAQ section to better serve your needs and clear up any concerns you may have about fit, installation and availability.

While you’re there, check out our growing library of related “how-to” videos. From attaching a replacement neck to a Fender body to installing a string tree, we’ve got all the bases covered for those of you looking for additional instruction on neck and body assembly.

Hey Brad I was looking earlier and didn't notice any left handed necks.
I know the lefty market isn't huge but it does appeal to the Hendrix fan boys that want a correct way round body, as well as lefties.

These will sell in the thousands. I may buy a couple myself.

My only concern is that they will be bolted onto Squiers and sold on ebay as Fenders. No one wants to see that.

I noticed that the bodies are stamped under the neck plate. I see on the neck the number 73599 written. Haven't seen that on a neck before, but thats not saying a lot.
Perhaps a Replacement Part stamp on the back of the headstock, like the bodies have under the neckplate would be a good idea.

That's a great point, unfortunately.

I am very interested in this and building my own strat. I was wondering can we select colors from http://www.fender.com/support/color-chart/ when choosing the body. I don't necessarily want to buy the standard sunburst or black or white color(s) if I don't have to. I want my strat to be unique! :)

Thankyou Brad! I am so happy that Fender bodies and necks are available. Looking at the pages and videos, good job, no more wondering if an after market neck will fit properly or if an after market body will have to be modified. :D

This is so rad!

Would be excited to see the SRV neck. I'd put that on all of my future guitars.

Awesome! I'd love to see some necks with a flatter radius (like 12") and stainless steel frets!
