Neck Mounting Hole Options
Warmoth guitar necks are available with the mounting hole patterns shown below. They can also be ordered without mounting holes by using the custom builders.
Standard 4-Bolt
These pre-drilled mounting holes fit Fender® vintage/original neck pocket specifications. They also match Warmoth bodies with a Standard 4-Bolt configuration. The holes are 1/8" (3mm) in diameter.
- Requires a standard rectangular neck plate, sold seperately.
- Available on all neck constructions.
Modern 4-Bolt
These pre-drilled mounting holes fit Fender® American Pro II neck pocket specifications. They also match Warmoth bodies with a Modern 4-Bolt configuration. The holes are 1/8" (3mm) in diameter.

Universal 5-Bolt
These pre-drilled mounting holes will fit both Fender® vintage/original and American Pro II neck pocket specifications. They also match all Warmoth bodies. The holes are 1/8" (3mm) in diameter.

3-Bolt Micro Tilt
Our 3-bolt Micro-Tilt rout matches Fender® early 70's specs. We rout for the mounting plate and drill for the screw holes, but we do not supply the hardware. Be sure your hardware is compatible with early 70's specs.
- Available on Vintage/Modern Construction necks only.
- Strat® and Tele® replacement bodies can also be routed for 3-bolt Micro-Tilt hardware.
Tip: Applying a small amount of paraffin, beeswax, or soap to the mounting screw threads will make neck installation easier.
