neck

nek

[English]

1. The part of a guitar, violin, lute, or other related instrument that extends from the pegbox to the body of the instrument and upon which the fingerboard is found.
 
2. The part of a drumstick located between the bead (or tip) and the shoulder. This area of the drumstick is important because the thinner necks tend to be more responsive to the performer.
