Mattalicca brought a headless guitar to a gearfest that had a very pronounced V neck. I can't remember if JB's Changberg has one too...

Oh that neck is something on another level. A v type neck wouldn't have the flat center

Assymetrical rocks. I can lend you a guitar with a Warmoth neck which is Wolfgang profile, if you are a right hander and in Auckland.
Real nice of you! I would jump on that chance but I'm 5 hours away.
I was looking at the Warmoth SRV and Wolfgang profiles last week actually.. very tempted!

Nah the strandbergs have a trapezoidal profile, my changberg has a fender C shape :)

A V is seriously nice to play though, kdawg2a's blue tele has one, its glorious!

Ah, ok... I knew the strandberg felt very angular. Couldn't recall the flat bit though. Anyway, not my cup of tea. I do have a V strat neck coming from Warmoth! Can't wait! Fingers crossed it gets here before xmas break!

Do you mind sharing the total price on that including shipping? My guess is you'll have to pay customs duty too when it gets here?

About NZD500, and yes, I may get stung by customs, but hoping against hope... crossing fingers... etc.

V shaped necks are great of you like to hook your thumb other the top of the neck. I've got a V-shaped Fender Strat neck that has been scalloped. Slowy tried it and loved it :-)
