The Fender Strat or Stratocaster has been used as a vehicle over the years to make so many different guitars. My guess is ALL woods have been tried. But Rosewood for the neck is often revered and in the case of Brazilian Rosewood its now priced (and controlled) almost like no other. After the CITES debacle where they 'shut down' most woods and 'forgot' about luthier's and the like they later updated their rules and so you see rosewood once again being offered for guitars - generally fingerboards. No more of those horrible woods for finger boards or complete necks that always did look dodgy and felt even worse - for some high price when makers tried to suggest that they were more 'exotic' and 'better' than the real deal woods all guitarists sort of know.

So, here is an Indian Rosewood neck made by Warmoth that I take a particularly close look at. I show all the specifications and the build quality of course - and that takes up some time in this video because it IS a review of that particular neck that will be integrated in to a guitar coming up on my channel soon as I create it.

But then I move on a little and compare the Fender standard neck with this Indian Rosewood so you can get a really good look at it. The question is though, which one would YOU choose if you wanted a neck. Put your comments down in the text and they should be interesting. State why you chose what you did too!

I bought this neck by the way so this is NOT a sponsored review and is completely genuine.

See EXACTLY what arrived and conclude yourself if this is good or bad? Is it Fender or Warmoth?

I do discuss the ORIGINAL price in this video of the Warmoth claro and roasted ash body, but I also tell you about the cost of the GOTOH 510 tremolo too.

The guitar body that will be used later is also from Warmoth and do take a look at that video - its a brilliant body...

This video is in 4K

I have spent considerable time making this video and it remains not sponsored so is a real genuine overview of my findings and a review of the Warmoth Indian Rosewood neck.

PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, RING THE BELL, AND THUMBS UP to give my channel a boost and thank you for watching - I hope the video is enjoyable for you and that you see the things in it that other reviews NEVER show!.
