Mighty Mite Neck for Fender Bass
Shaped, inlaid, fretted and finished. Feels and plays great!
Hard rock maple finished in clear satin polyurethane, with an inlaid "skunk stripe" down the back.
The 20 frets are nicely finished, and the nut is slotted and shaped from PPS plastic with a flat bottom. Maple or Indian Rosewood fretboard with dot inlays and side markers.
The necks with Indian Rosewood fingerboards have a matching Indian Rosewood skunk stripe. Necks with maple fingerboards are inlaid with merbau wood skunk stripes.
Screwholes for attaching to the body are not drilled. Each neck has a truss rod with a 4mm adjusting nut at the peghead. We recommend Allen Truss Rod Wrench for adjusting neck relief.
The 23/32"-diameter pegholes fit our Adjustable Tension Bass Tuners.

Neck thickness (approximate; not including fret)
Ideally, the neck should just drop into the neck-pocket, or be a little snug. Don't force the neck into the pocket. If the body is unfinished, remember that the finish will make the neck pocket smaller with lacquer build up on the edge of the rout. Be sure to compensate for the finish buildup or the neck will be too tight after finishing.
