![]() ![]() Any guitar I get will have the brass V trem and bone nut, so it would be possible to recut the nut if the nut string spacing was too wide.Ĭonsodering the above, it would be good to hear some opinions on how you think I would get on with this neck, and whether the 1 3/4 width nut is something to worry about.This funky San Dimas is a Charvel Custom Shop guitar, finished in Grabber Orange over an alder body. The few that haven’t liked it have stated it was to do with how close the strings were to the edge of the fretboard when using a R6 width locking nut. Most people who have tried this neck absolutely love it. Also there is just about 1mm difference between 1.65 and 1.6875. My feeling with necks is that the back shape probably has at least as big an influence as the nut, maybe even more, on how people perceive a neck. ![]() I have also been told that in order the San Dimas Speed neck is thinnest, flattest and widest with the most shoulder, then the Guthrie Govan neck, then the Tommy neck which has less shoulders and is almost a mild V shape near the nut end, and then the fender necks. I have been advised by a few people that if I like the fender necks, then the MZ Tommy profile will fit me better. I can play either, but prefer the 1.6875. I also prefer a wider nut, and like the 1 11/16 (1.6875â€) widths nuts as I find 1.65†too cramped at the nut end. I have a Charvel CS with the San Dimas speed neck, and find it too flat and wide. My favourite neck ever is the Charvel Guthrie Govan neck - it flatter than the fender C shape but not as flat as the standard Charvel CS San dimas neckshape. I tend to like the thinner fender necks the best though. Unfortunately, I can’t try them out so have to try and figure out on here whether I might like it.įor reference, I generally like all the Fender C shapes from CS 60s, 65C, modern C etc. ![]() The thing that concerns me is the 1 3/4 nut width, but in my experience what makes a good neck is the sum of all the parts and not just one aspect. I’m trying to figure out if I would like the Music Zoo Tommy (Pre Pro) neck shape. ![]()
