Do they fit Fenders?

Which year and model?

prob not? Most mij necks I've come across are way too narrow to really fit the pocket of a fender. At least the older stuff that was made before japan started trying to straight up duplicate fenders in the late 70's or whatever.

never tried it, but I really doubt this would work.

Why would you want to teisco necks are terrible...

Some of them are complete TDPRI level boat necks, that's the appeal I guess, but the reality is 90 % are wimpy limp dick necks.

Terrible, check, why? check . I'm just looking for a cheap rosewood fretboard neck for my
Affinity tele refin project. My maple neck seems to play fine , no sharp frets. But I've got a desire for a rosewood . What I've since decided is to let the refin cost amortize and then get something like a Mighty Mite. Before I was hitting eBay and the pawn shops for cheap necks, the Teisco was like 12 bucks

I do appreciate your all's wisdom.

just get an affinity rosewood neck, they probably sell for just as much as the teiscos.

I got a bid on a CBS style Affinity strat neck right now, though ebay people want outrageous money, I will see.

My Ebay style, I get a bit wasted, bid on something, am horrified, hope I don't win. Then toward the end of the bidding I hope I do win. Then I get sniped and am sad and a touch relieved. Then there are brands like ION, which are super cheap,that I'm afraid of. Any off brand neck experiences ?

Here I go again http://www.ebay.com/itm/330691267150?ss ... fresh=true
One hour left, NO bids I go minimum, bang, shot down at the end. What I say and what I do, want I say I need and what I want . I guess I don't want to spend more than 40 or so on a neck. I'm getting to hate Ebay. Like window shopping

Me, but substitute wasted for depressed.

As far as I can remember neither the scale or the width is comparable to Fender..many of them Teiscos have 19, 20 frets..or even less.

they often are made of multiple wood layers, not from one or two pieces..
