Replacement roasted strat neck

Greatape

Does anyone make something very close to the American Pro neck, but roasted?

I'm sure people will mention various UK and US brands, but I'm very familiar with Warmoth so I'll talk about them.

Warmoth make roasted maple necks, and if you choose the vintage/modern construction it has the 22 frets and headstock-end trussrod adjustment.  You can get the straight 9.5" radius too.

In terms of neck profiles they haven't got anything quite like the "Modern Deep C".  Their Standard Thin neck is more like the older Modern C.  Their 59 Roundback, SRV and Wolfgang profiles are a little chunkier but all have different features (the latter two have asymmetric shapes).

Having said that, I never think their in-stock roasted maple necks look as good as the highly-figured and/or quartersawn roasted necks found on guitars from the likes of Suhr, Xotic, Eggle and Music Man.

I'm sure I've seen Fender selling them.

I think they sell a 12" radius Mexican one. Too flat.

As you're looking for maple, you should be OK.

If you can live with 21 frets and heel adjust truss rod I have some quarter sawn roasted maple in stock.

10" radius and narrow/tall frets so comparable to the Pro spec. These are a little thicker than a modern C.

This one is the closest to the spec you’re after:

Thanks but too narrow at nut. Plus, am after rosewood. 

It's to replace the neck on a '98 American Deluxe. Fender machined the truss cavity too wide, so it rattled, leading to someone over-tightening the rod. Some years  ago, Manson's filled the cavity with glue to kill an horrible resonance that would occur on low Bb.

Now there's no adjustment left, and the rattles have returned...

It's a great profile. Very little taper. But I do definitely need a 43mm nut.

SC relics on here might be able to help?

Shout out for @GSPBASSES - I'm in the process of ordering a roasted maple Tele neck from him, so it's probably worth asking if he can do what you need.
