Number 1 was my first thought, making the neck narrower seemed a bit dodgy of the pocket to widen....
File down the sides of the neck, just as deep as the pocket so you don't see is a loose pocket.

Just purchased a 2011 American Strat Standard, and just noticed these minor gaps on either side of the neck. Is this something that should warrant return or is it just my OCD kicking in?
I already have to go back to guitar center to get the correct tremolo...

Just about to start routing the neck pocket and shaping the neck on my JR Build. I've decided to put the angle on the tenon itself and have the pocket parallel to the top.
When I come to rough cutting out my neck and trimming the tenon to fit the neck...

Its surface.
As for the neck pocket I use a rather cool jig that uses the finished neck as the guide for routing.

How frequently do you guys turn the necks on your brass? Is there a acceptable tolerance for neck thickness?

Neck turning.
If the necks are uneven, the round will have runout by definition.

I still haven't found any instrument unique enough for my tastes. So after looking at the thread on converting a Strat to a bass, is it possible to take a Telecaster body and put-on a 30" scale neck, either off of a Mustang/Bronco/Musicmaster or to have...

One thing is too wide for the bronco....

I'd like to replace my G&L neck, since it's warped and twisted (never was any good.) What neck should I get? Would a jazz or p-bass neck fit? I'm looking to replace it with a fretless neck. Any pointers much appreciated.
thanks!

Maybe USA Custom guitars will make you a neck with your pattern.
Thanks maybe they can help.
Goodluck.
Measure your neck pocket for length and width and match it with what you find.
