Fender Vintera II Bass VI Neck Specs?

Post by Peckhammer » Mon May 05, 2025 11:41 am

Does anyone know the 1st, and 12th fret neck thickness measurements for a Fender Vintera II Bass VI?

I've got the Squier Bass VI and the neck measures .830" at the 1st, and .915" at the 12th. It seems that the original '60s Bass VIs were around .820/.970 or so and had a 7.25" radius. I've seen Custom Shop versions with 9.5" radius and .840/920" measurements. I am wondering where the Vintera II fits in the mix? I'm thinking about swapping out the Squier neck and buying something different.

Anyone have opinions on 7.25 vs. 9.5 radius on the bass vi?
