Ok... so I was looking at the neck on my Telecaster (Korean, Bish's old guitar) and I noticed that it has 22 frets WITHOUT the overhang... My American Strat's neck has 22 frets WITH an overhang... what gives? It a Telecaster different? Could I throw that neck on another Telecaster (Mexican) and would it work? Seems weird...

Good morning Dogbite!

Not looking to do it Bish! Just curious. I was looking into a Fat Tele and while looking at 22-fret and 21-fret Teles I noticed that the Lite Ash Tele has no overhang. I'm assuming that the bridge on the Lite Ash tele is a bit closer to the neck pocket than the other Teles...

I am absolutely crazy. I just looked again and the neck does have a hang-over. I have no idea what I was thinking. Sorry!!!

Someone had too much Guinness last night. :lol:

All my life I wanted to be somebody. Now I see I should have been more specific.
