Ebay neck, anyone have an opinion?

Ebay neck

hey, I'm looking for a neck for a project. '52 reissue neck would be nice, but this one says it's made in Japan. Any info anyone?

If someone else here is already looking at it let me know, I'm in noooo hurry.

Thanks.

<li>Here from 20,000 feet it looks the part although them tuner holes look a liddo large fer vintage style tuners.
<li>I kin sortta cee the "Made in Japan onna back of that neck and thats a good thang couse iffin it is a mid 80s neck yer gonna like the feel.
<li>It looks like the string tree waz removed from the rite spot and that the truss plug looks like an old style rather than a hole fer a headstock adjustment like the later ones are.
<li>The color and pix of that decal make it look lika aftermarket one cause its sew gray. May jes be the lousy pix.

Thanks Fuzzy for setting me on the straight and narrow.

Dacious and El Capitan, thanks for the links. Is there any reason to buy the Fender neck over the after-market licensed neck? Other than the obivious name on it. I wouldn't put a Fender decal on non-Fender part. I've briefly played the 52 ri and loved it, but it was brief. I guess after thinking about this for a day or two, I need to define exactly what it is want. Thanks guys.
