Proper Instruments 1-of-1 Nitro Stratocaster Replacement Neck – Tattooed & Lightly Roasted

Description

This is the exact neck you’ll receive.

Maple with a beautiful hand-selected rosewood fretboard, lightly roasted, and our proprietary clear nitro coating. The finish is smoother than traditional satin—honestly, smoother than a baby’s bottom—with just a subtle visual touch of semi-gloss under bright lighting. It’s thin and natural-feeling, allowing the wood to breathe just enough while providing decades of protection against warping. Our nitro is intentionally not thick or overly glossy like Fender’s.

8mm tuner holes.

This is not a reliced neck. It’s carefully aged just enough to feel comfortably broken in from day one—like an old friend you’ve already spent years playing. From there, it will continue to wear naturally and develop its own character over the next decade and beyond. Our necks are engineered to peel, age, and evolve beautifully with years of real playing.

Jumbo frets and a classic 9.5” radius.

Hand-sanded with our Proper C carve—never too chunky, never too thin. It simply feels right in your hand. 

Heel truss adjustment.
