Fender Jazz Neck Replacement

Hey guys, I currently own a Fender PBass Special Deluxe and am looking to get a replacement neck for it. I am really sold on going with a fretless neck but I am not interested in spending big money. From what information I've gathered, these basses use a standard jazz neck.

I guess my question is, does anybody have any recommendations on where to get a fretless neck that would be a direct replacement? I've contacted a few places but nobody will have anything in stock until Spring. I'd like to pick up something in the next week or two.

Thanks for your time.

AllParts makes some good replacement necks, or USACG for that matter.

Mighty-Mite has stepped up the game too. They have some nice vintage tinted necks out and they are Stamped "Licensed By Fender" On the Heel Now. About $100 for Fretted but not sure on fretless price.

The ones I saw from Allparts were a little more than what I was wanting to spend. I'll take a look at USACG and revisit Allparts again.

Mighty Mite was one that I looked into but was told that they won't have any fretless jazz necks until Spring.

Thanks both of you for the recommendations.

This looks like a nice neck. I will get one once My P-Bass sells.
