I believe the Hot Rod was just an American Standard (pre-2000) or American Series (2000 and up) Precision with an added bridge pickup and an ash body instead of alder depending on the finish. So the neck will be identical. A Jazz neck is thinner and narrower. Someone correct me if I'm wrong about the Hot Rod

It is my recollection, that one of the selling points of the Hot Rod Precision Basses, is that the neck was slimmer, like a jazz bass. I've played a few- and that seemed to be the case. |

Here's a couple of links to ones listed for sale that have the nut dimension info. Below that is an answer on Fender forums that gives some info. on right handed models.Looks like they had P bass necks. Couldn't find any thing stating a jazz size necks used. Hope this helps. https://www.elderly.com/fender-american ... s-1999.htm https://reverb.com/item/4963836-1999-fe ... ision-rare RMay USA/Colorado Fender MIA Club Member #20 May 12th, 2008 01:01 AM Edit Profile Print Topic Search Topic Same model only the name was altered after 6/2000 when Fender introduced the American Series. + No skunk stripe necks + Schaller strap buttons + Precision necks rosewood or maple fret boards + Pickups: 1 "New" Hot-Vintage Split Single-Coil P-Bass Pickup, 1 "New" Hot-Vintage Jazz-Bass Pickup + Graphite Reinforced Maple Neck + Fingerboard: Rosewood or Maple, (9.5� Radius/241 mm) + Rolled Fingerboard Edges MSRP: $1,429.99: Alder Body, $1,579.99: Ash Body Model was discontinued 1/2002.

Don't think it was 1 1/2". |

Last year I've bought a American Std P bass neck from the stratosphere and there was a stamp on the heel: "PJ". I assume that's a neck from a hot rod P bass. At the time I've never measured it but it felt exactly like my 96 Am Std P bass that I've got right here on LB (now sold). |

I used to own a Hot Rod P and the neck was definitely close to an Am Std P, nit a J. |
