I own a black nocaster limited edition. Great guitar, but Im more of a 7.25radius rosewood guy so Im thinking about replacing the neck. Maybe with a brazilian board. Where can I find one? Any issues with this?

I am going to think that a Tele neck with Brazilian rosewood is going to be rare and custom-built thing.....also, fairly expensive. IF you can find the Braz. rosewood blank, someone like USA might custom build the neck for you....or give them a call/email and see if they by chance stock some BR.
I personally am going to think that Indian would do just as well for this application, but money talks if Braazilian is what you want.

That would be my choice, also, Fezz.....but it ain't Brazilian RW. Hermok is getting picky. IMHO, the only differences between Indian and Brazilian would be cost and availability.

Why not keep it pure and start over? Unless you're married to that body or you want a black out nocaster. Is it one of those relics from Wildwood?

Wildwood? Bought it from Eddies in St Louis.
The Braz guitas Ive owned and tried feel alot smoother than the Indian. I would pay to get that.
Sorry it took me so long to answer.

I believe that USA Custom still has Brazilian as an option on a custom neck. Take a look: http://www.usacustomguitars.com
