Take Your Strat’s Performance to the Next Level
Whether you’re putting together a “Partscaster” or looking to take your stock instrument to the next level, Fender’s Satin Roasted Maple Stratocaster Neck should be at the top of your list! This neck’s roasted maple construction dramatically increases structural stability, offering superb resistance to shifting due to seasonal or environmental changes. A sleek, slim Flat Oval profile and 12-inch radius ensure peak performance across all 22 of this neck’s jumbo frets, forming the ideal platform for technique-heavy guitarists or any musician whose playability tastes skew toward the “modern” end of the spectrum. Lastly, Sweetwater guitarists particularly appreciate how this neck’s combination of a smooth satin finish and comfortably rolled fret ends deliver a nearly frictionless feel in the palm of your hand.
Note: Every neck and guitar are different, and a final setup, including filing the nut slots and a final fret leveling, may be required after installation on your guitar. Call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have any questions about upgrading or replacing the neck on your Fender guitar or bass.
Roasted maple neck and fingerboard
What’s so special about roasted maple? In comparison to a standard maple neck, a roasted maple neck’s lower moisture content is said to increase structural stability. This results in greater resistance to changes in environment, ensuring that your neck relief and overall setup remain solid for much longer than with a standard maple neck. Finally, roasted maple’s dark amber hue imparts an elegant edge to any instrument’s aesthetics.
