Do american fenders use a dual truss rod or vintage style truss rod?

[Xeromus]

Question in the title. I've never owned an american fender and so I don't know. The information could be useful in deciding what type of neck to get for my warmoth strat.

My '01 MIA had a dual truss rod.

you know, it's a damn shame you can't get a regular strat headstock dual rod neck from warmoth without that stupid side adjust. What a pisser.

Why don't you like the side adjust? I think it's a good idea - no visible holes, and no need to take the guitar apart.

Every person I know that has had experience with them has complained about it. Whether they are guitar owners or luthiers. Owners say they are a pain in the ass, repair guys have said it's a bad design.

no viasable holes??? my warmoth neck has a big ass hole/screw in the side of the heel lol. it looks bad, and doesn't seem to do all that much when used unless you turn it like mad. the guitar i bought from TC came with it, it wasn't my choice and it's ok to live with and not a huge deal but i much rather have a warmoth vintage modern headstock adjustable neck over it any day!
