Fender Neck Pockets

They say a picture paints a thousand words (or something like that) – these images from the Warmoth site give all the pertinent information:

Basically:

  • heels “should” be 2 3/16 inches or 56 mm wide where they meet the back of the neck pocket
  • pocket depth is 5/8″ or 16 mm
  • the height of the neck *including fretboard* “should” be 1 “
  • the mount of neck *including fretboard* “should” be 3/8″ or 9mm above the body

* “should” is in quotes above as these things can vary ..
