Changing the neck of a Jazzmaster classic player

leofrom5to7

Hello all,

I recently traded a MIJ 62 RI strat for Jazzmaster classic player. Although I'm happy with the overall higher output of the guitar, I got to say I don't think I'll ever get used to this neck, specially the radius. I really loved the thicker strat neck with is rounder fretboard, smaller scale and radius..boy do i regret trading that baby!

I was wondering if its possible to change the neck of this guitar for one that is more similar to the start regardless of the difference in raidus. Would love any recommendations or insight on this.

Thanks!

You can put any strat scale neck on a Jazzmaster. Just make sure to get a bridge that matches the radius. (Maybe a Mustang bridge?)
