Does a good 22 fret, 57mm heel tele neck exist?

[jake_xms3_punk]

Hey guys! I'm in need of a neck replacement for a 90's squier tele. This neck is chipped, warped, crappy truss rod and the frets are sharp etc etc

Standard fender lic necks don't fit so I measured the heel and pocket and its 57mm. The only 57mm necks I could find are no brand cheap 21 fretters. does anyone (quality wise, things like allparts, wd etc, even mighty mite would do) make a decent 22 fret, 57mm heel neck?

I do not know, wish I could be of help!

Have you tried contacting Warmoth, Musikraft, USACG, etc and explaining your situation? Or have you searched eBay for the same neck?

Thanks for the reply. I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find anything. All the squier necks I've found seem to be fender spec (55.5mm?) no idea why mine's wider. I could get in touch with warmoth etc but It would probably cost a lot as it's not a standard size plus I live in the UK I'm sure something will come up.

Ahh...would be more expensive with something like Warmoth.

Not sure where to steer ya, almost think it would be cheaper to sell the guitar and get something else...wish I could be of more help!

At least I know squier have made necks of this size in the past, I'm in no rush to get this guitar running so one is bound to come up at some point. Thanks for the suggestions

Most welcome man! I think you can set up a search/query on eBay for specific stuff and be notified when one comes up for sale. Best of luck and hope a better neck becomes available!
