Custom 25.5in Mustang full scale conversion necks

zemper

Anyone know about having a custom neck made to fit a Mustang that would convert the scal to 25.5 in.? I mean totally custom we all know you cant strap a tele or strat neck on, but if you figured the correct fret spacings, couldnt you have a custom full scale neck made? Anyone heard of this done before?

I know for a fact that jackson/ibanez/ESP necks that have 24 frets have the right measurements but they do not have the same heel. In other words, you could have a luthier kit out a jackson style neck with a fender heel.

And the locking nut would help with tuning issues too!

"Conversion neck", and Warmoth.com is the only place that I know of doing that. But they only do the 24 3/4" (Gibson) neck, that you can slap on your 25 1/2" (Fender). You could email Ken at Warmoth.com, they may have em..... doubt it though.

how could more people not have gotten this question in their heads? it seems so plausable..?? A I wrong< I mean a full scale mustang are you kidding me, Id love to see one done to look like stock but just have a strat feel measurement wise, get some more sustain, still have all the mustang controls and electronics... That would be a great project and Id be first in line for a bolt on neck, with a big Fender headstock and a mustang 60s logo... Im sure Im not alone on that either... 😕
