Hello,
Does anyone know if I can fit a 2016 American Standard neck on a 2016 "52 ReIssue" body?


Thank you!
Cheers.

The neck pocket and the neck heel are similar, so with the usual "expect some fitting" reservation, yes.

I'd guess you know the radius, frets, tuning machines are different, and that you'll have to figure what to do with the Micro-Tilt™ system.

Some consider this to be a downgrade, and anyways you're getting a Partscaster instead of an AVRI, so keep the original parts to reverse the mod - if you later want to sell the original AVRI.

Hello Jmattis,
Thank you for the information. Good points.

After investigation, It's not any cheaper than purchasing a decent Used AVRI 52 with the case.

I think I'll just find a nice used Fender AVRI 52 and go that route. At least it will hold some resale value if I decide to sell it at some point.

Thank you again.
cheers!!

Glad if I could be of any help, although you made me shoot blindfolded. :wink: (I understood you already have an AVRI, and just want to change the neck, but apparently that ain't the case.)

On a second hand AVRI, the value keeps quite well, especially with careful buying and proper care of the instrument.
