Does anyone have any experience with buying aftermarket replacement necks for their Teles?

My 2000 MIM is pretty beat up after numerous gigs and I'd love to put a soft V neck on it, but I don't know which brands to trust.

I'd appreciate any input.

Thanks.

Warmoth or MightyMite are 2 trusted sources.

I prefer Fender necks - I know they'll fit, they are already finished, have nuts installed, and you can often find them with tuners installed too to save time and sometimes a little money.

There are a lot of brand new ones for sale on eBay from sellers who apparently buy brand new Fenders, disassemble them, and sell the parts.

For a soft V, try a MIM Baja Telecaster neck. Go try out several necks at your local Fender dealer and note the models with the necks you prefer.

I agree with George and would just get the real thing. Checkout the Stratosphere on ebay.
