Can anyone identify this neck?

Can anyone tell the manufacturer of this neck? I previously thought it was Allparts, but I’m not sure.
The hardware isn’t original, and the headstock has been refinished.

It’s been replaced with a Fender 60s “American Original” Jazzmaster neck.

Looks like a Fender neck to me.

^ Me too.

Definitely not Allparts, their logo is burnt/etched into the heel.

I can’t find any Fender neck with blocks and bindings that has headstock truss rod access... Hmmm

Yeah, exactly what that neck would be, I have no idea. But having pulled any number of Fender necks you see that kind of stuff on pretty much all of them. If that's not a Fender neck, someone went through some trouble to make it appear like a Fender neck even at the heel markings. Either that or they use the exact same kind of warehouse/factory system that Fender uses with the same markings.

Modern neck with blocks and binding.. could be from a Japanes JM66b or a Troy van Leeuwen. Van Leeuwen has the date on the bottom of the heel tho', between the neck screws so my money would be on the JM66b.

Could it be a vintage modified Squier?
