I purchased a neck off a guy and cant tell if its real..aside from the fact that its old and beat up the fender logo seems like a decal and the tuners dont say fender or anything on them...any ways to see what this is?

Post some pics.

| | | if by "real" you mean "vintage" or even "higher end reissue", then no, not with that truss rod hole. 
vintage decal + import-style truss rod access = homebrew creation

3/16" = mexican standard
4mm or 5mm = far east import, a squier of some sort
