Hey all, I wanted to build my own Tele. I know, it will probably cost more than buying one but I think it would be cool to build my own.
I got a 2007 American neck off Ebay and it has the disc in the butt for the tilt adjust.
Most bodies I find do not have the 5th hole for tilt adjust. I really wanted an American made neck....do I REALLY need a body with the 5th hole ?
I know..if I want to use the tilt adjust I do but I doubt I would want to raise the action anyway.
thanks for any help you can offer.
It looks like part #0072994-970 on the neck but I cant find any part look up on here.
thanks
Steve

Get a Warmoth body, they only charge $15 more to rout it for the microtilt.

i'm pretty sure that if you do't want to use the micro tilt you don't need a body with the micro tilt. The plate on the neck is flush with the wood so it won't have any adverse effects. So its really just up to you. Though if you do want to use it, Warmoth bodies do offer the routing, though you'll need to find the hardware somewhere else since they don't have the hardware.
