Description

The Fender Satin Roasted Maple Fat Stratocaster Neck is a genuine Fender replacement neck with a seriously chunky feel and a sleek, satin-roasted finish. Built in Ensenada, Mexico, it pairs an oversized U-shaped profile with roasted maple construction to deliver huge hand-filling comfort, enhanced sustain and a smooth, broken-in playing experience for your Strat or Squier by Fender.

Carrying forward Fender’s modular legacy, this neck is designed for players who want to transform the feel and tone of their instrument in one hit. The deep U profile measures an impressive .990″ at both the 1st and 12th frets, giving you maximum real estate under the hand, while the 9.5 inch radius, 22 medium jumbo frets and satin urethane back make fast runs, big bends and long sessions feel effortless.

Roasted maple is the star of the show here. The heat treatment process makes the neck more stable against humidity changes and brings out a richer, darker look with a slightly sweeter, more resonant response. Combined with rolled fingerboard edges and a pre-slotted synthetic bone nut, you get a neck that feels instantly familiar, responds beautifully and is ready to be dialled in by a good tech to suit your playing style.

Chunky U-shaped Profile

This neck features an oversized U-shaped carve that is ideal if you prefer a substantial, hand-filling feel. Measuring .990″ at both the 1st and 12th frets, it is the largest profile in the Fender replacement neck range, giving you a solid anchor for powerful rhythm work, confident bends and precise vibrato.

Roasted Maple Stability and Tone

The roasted maple construction is naturally more resistant to humidity shifts, helping your neck stay stable across changing environments. The roasting process also enhances sustain and imparts a distinctive tonal character, adding depth and clarity to your Strat’s voice while giving the wood a rich, dark aesthetic.

Satin Finish and Rolled Edges

A satin urethane finish on the back of the neck keeps things silky-smooth, reducing friction so you can move up and down the neck with ease. Rolled fingerboard edges add to the comfort, creating a played-in feel straight out of the box that is easy on the hands during long rehearsals and gigs.

Modern Playability

With a 9.5 inch radius maple fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo frets, this neck is built for modern playability. Choke-free bends, clean intonation and comfortable string spacing from the pre-slotted synthetic bone nut all work together to support everything from expressive lead work to precise chord playing.

Key Features

  • Oversized U-shaped Neck Profile – A deep, chunky U-shaped carve measuring .990″ at both the 1st and 12th frets gives you maximum grip and presence under the hand, ideal for players with larger hands or anyone who prefers a substantial, vintage-inspired feel.
  • Roasted Maple Construction – The roasted maple neck offers improved resistance to humidity changes, enhanced sustain and a unique tonal character, helping your guitar stay stable while adding richness and clarity to your sound.
  • Satin Urethane Back with Rolled Edges – A smooth satin finish on the back of the neck and hand-rolled fingerboard edges provide a fast, comfortable playing surface with a naturally broken-in feel, reducing fatigue during longer sessions.
  • 9.5 inch Radius and 22 Medium Jumbo Frets – The modern 9.5 inch fingerboard radius and 22 medium jumbo frets make for easy string bending, accurate intonation and versatile playability, from tight rhythm work to fluid lead lines.
