WezV Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 its a 70's strat so has a 3 bolt neck plate rather than the usual 4. this consists of 2 normal neck screws and 1 bolt that attaches to a disc shaped insert in the neck. this mirros a disc shaped insert in the neck pocket you can buy the 3 bolt hardware here http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/neckplates_fender3.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 looks like these what im looking for... You can get #10 threaded inserts and machine screws at any hardware store. #8 might do too, but I stuck with 10 because that's the size of the normal neck screws. If you want to buy online you could try ebay or Ed Roman sells a kit(though it costs way more than the hardware itself would, $20): http://www.edroman.com/parts/IS_specialparts.htm#DCK Woodcraft has the inserts, but I'd stick with their 8-32 because the 3/8" pilot hole for the 10-32 might go through the side of the neck. http://www.woodcraft.com/product.aspx?Prod...p;FamilyID=1048 Machine screws are easy to find, you probably want 1-1/2" length, measure your neck pocket to see. It's better to buy hardware in-store though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanthus Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Thanks for the advice on what inserts to buy, Keegan! I asked a similar question in a thread I started: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=40561 along with a few other queries, if anyone could help me out Yeah, I do realize I just plugged my own thread *facepalm* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddybear Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I don't think Fender does that. who says that? in the newest yngwie signature series, you'll find it. i take from the site Unique Features: Scalloped Fingerboard, pickups, machine screw neck mounting see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WezV Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 ah right, this one: http://www.fender.co.uk/products//search.p...rtno=0107112841 and the tribute has a 4 plate neck too so might have the inserts in it, didnt realise that was a mod yngwie did?? http://www.fender.com/yngwie/english/guitar.php when you said yngwie strat i just assumed the neck join was still like it would have been back in 1971 when his strat was new and unadulterated, which does include 1 machine bolt!! from the pics it looks like fender actually make the relic version as a period correct 3 bolt necked fender before converting it to 4 bolts and treating it like **** i have some inserts to try out but i consider them a bit bigger than ideal. not a problem for me since i can place them where i want but if i had done them in 4 bolt neck plate layout i think they would have split the heel so far the ones supplied by moses graphite with there necks seem to be the nicest size i have seen - i really should have measured them!!
