i was just wondering what you guys preferred neck specs for electric guitars are?
mine are:
-A "V" profile (I'll take sharp or soft(my Tele's soft) seeing that there hard to find unless custom ordered)
-maple neck solid
-maple fretboard -part of neck not separate- (i like ebony too)
-i like the low radius like fenders 9.5"/241mm
-meaty frets like medium jumbo
-scale Length ~ 25.5"/648mm
-# frets doesn't matter
-never really cared about joint type but i guess bolt on |

I like maples too but more In fretboards I prefer rosewood.
Thick necks like les pauls just dont fit to me, so I prefer thin ones... Wide frets...or how you say that is bit difficult to me to play chords especially barre chords.

Keep on topic folks!
I like a VERY smooth, rosewood neck, rosewood finger board, U contour
Bolt-on, neck confort contour and, Biggest frets possible...OH, and i like thick necks, even though my hands are as small as a 3rd graders....(I'm 13)
So...who just figured out that i'm a luthier? xD |

SATIN FINISH! I absolutely love a satin finish on a neck. Also, it has to be thin, at least 24 frets, and NOT bolted on. Extra Jumbo frets too. |

they use regular tuning but the are better at the lower frets for wide streching, thats why the frets are all wierd |

I like Jackson Necks THE ORIGINAL COMPOUND RADIUS NECK that started Randy on a shred revolution. EVH used Charvel guitars in his Van Halen Days wich used the same Fretboard. |
