Time to break out the router and route it out 1/32" on each side.
Fender neck heel is 2 1/4" and a Jackson neck heel is 2 3/16"

I believe it's the otherway around. The Jackson neck heel is 2 1/4 and the Fender is 2 3/16. As long as your using a 21 or 22 fret neck it will intonate. But a 24 fretter won't.
