Why does Fender vary with their Maple neck tint? You pick up 3 Telecasters and you can get 3 different variations on the neck. I'm wondering if anyone has seen the new 60th Anniv. maple neck? Is the tint on it any darker than the American Standard Tele? I just don't like those new bleached out maple necks very much. :?:

Variety is the spice of life or different strokes for different folks?

It could be the wood was slightly different shades before they applied the finish. Or the finish could have "absorbed" more in some necks, OR the guy mixing the tint is just "eyeballing" it LOL !!!!
