NND! (New neck day)

Had a MIM standard Fender Precision neck laying around and decided to build a 60’s inspired P with a Surf Green Warmoth body a couple months ago. I couldn’t for the life of me love the narrow nut and modern C, so I bought a Fender American Original 60’s neck! I love it now! Bass consists of AO 60’s neck, Fender Pure Vintage tuners and bridge, Pure Vintage 63 pickup, CTS pots, switchcraft Jack, cloth pushback wire, orange cap, aged tort guard, and all cavities copper shielded. Strung with TI Jazz Flats. I wonder how many people would think it was a real AO 60’s P? Lol
