    Can we talk about the neck profile on the S/S/S? I'm "neck spec sensitive," should be some kind of medical syndrome! I f'ed up my left arm 20 years ago (road racing motorcycles) and the necks I can play are a lot more limited as a result. Any way you can put calipers on this neck and let me know what we're looking at?

    I have a '91 Sunburst, specs are 0.835 at the 1st and 0.856 at the 12th and these are livable (thought not ideal). 

    Thanks! Andrew

    Andrew,

    Its around .886 with calipers ON TOP of the smaller strings compressed down to the fingerboard.  Its .901 on top of the nut with the bottom caliper  angled back to the narrowest part of the neck opposite the nut.  It is 1.6865 wide at the nut.  This measurement is accurate.

    I have large, ham-fisted hands with several fingers that have been broken on both and prefer larger, more C shaped necks, but this one is comfortable and quite fast (for me).

    FYI - I have someone in the UK seriously interested and we are trying to work out shipping issues and overall costs with CITES etc.

    But, you are first in line here in the US, with one behind you kicking the tires!

    Does the 816 part make you local to the KC Metro area?

    Stay safe,

    Scott

    Scott,

    Too big for me, kind of what I feared. It's a reasonable size, but my little dinged up hands it won't work. Hamer's smaller necks are great for me, but hard to track down.

    Thanks for the effort and good luck with the sale over to the UK.

    816 was my father's jet in Vietnam's tail number; kind of a lucky family number so to speak.

    GLWYS!!!

    Ricky,

    It was great speaking with you today and chatting with another Peavey fan.

    I'll get the T-60 shipped out to you tomorrow.

    Stay safe,

    Same goes for me. Give me the price and an address, and I'll cut you a check and get it in the mail. It's a pleasure to have such a straightforward transaction. Wishing you a speedy and full recovery.
