mjmark223 Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 HI I have a squire strat and the frets are starting to stick out of the sides of the fretboard. I have filed them down but I find it very annoying. Would a quality replacement neck fit the squire body? If so, how difficult is this process? Thanks Mark Quote

Thanks Mark The frets are sticking out because the wood on the neck is shrinking due to moisture being lost. and the frets are not just file them down and sand with finer grits sandpaper, until you got a smooth edge. there's no need to replace the neck.

RGXDave Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 (edited) If you do decide to replace the neck then just buy a Fender Licensed Strat neck from Allparts @ http://www.Allparts.com , Warmoth @ http://www.Warmoth.com, Mighty Mite @ http://www.MightyMite.com or on Ebay.Hope this helps.
