Members cratz2 Posted January 8, 2013 Members Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yeah, the Squier 51 had that combo. Not too bad... Actually I kinda dig the look. I've never actually put a tele neck on a strat body or vice versa. The shapes of the heel and pocket are a bit different. I think you can physically put a strat neck on a tele body, but you end up with some gaps in the pocket. I think you have to do a little bit of routing to get a tele neck on a strat body.

Members onelife Posted January 8, 2013 Members Share Posted January 8, 2013 I broke the neck off a strat in my younger days and eventually found a tele neck for sale in a music store. At the time I did not realize the shape was different and when the screw holes didn't line up I just made new ones. There was enough play in the bridge saddles to properly intonate and I used the guitar for several years before finally giving it to a friend.It ended up looking something like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
