    I’m not sure what to call this piece of metal with screws for the neck, but some guitars have logos or a custom pattern. Are all these the same size? Anyone know of how to get something more ornate?

  2. Go on eBay or reverb and search “custom neck plate”, you’ll find something. :D Most newer are nominally built to Fender spec but I’d double check against yours before you order anything.

    Had 3 done [ebay] but it was so long ago, can't remember who made them. Should be easy to search.

    These are standard Fender size, although always good to double check measurements.
