    Default Does Fender make these?

    Does Fender make a flat radius fretboard..I played one once that did..it was the most comfortable fretboard I've ever played. I've done some research online and it looks like an aftermarket fretboard could be bought but I'd rather get it from Fender so I know it will fit; do they make them? Is it a custom item?

    They did make a single coil strat with 15.75 " radius but they no longer make them. They still make a double humbucker Tele with 15.75 radius.
    There also may be a few artist series guitars with a flat radius but they tend to be more costly.

    I have a CS Strat Pro with a 12" rosewood board
    That's pretty flat

    My old Fender Showmaster Celtic H had a 15.75" radius fretboard and a quite thin neck.
