Kinda puzzled on this shape, and how it relates to a "regular" Time Machine 60

Some say it is "thinner", some say "fatter"
Some say Deeper buy less shoulder

Can someone who has one give me an idea
Local stores don't have them

Thanks

Good question... I would like to know as well. I tried a "large c" and it did not work for me... Too much shoulder. I also know the "early 60's c" on my Rory is pretty thin and flat.

I personally did not like it.
To me it did not have enough meat
I like the 65 c and I traded my 60s
in on a 59 large C so I guess I like
a larger neck shape. but Oval shape
is even thinner than the american standard
c so if you want a thin small neck it would
be good for you. It is not wider than the aforementioned
necks. The width is pretty much the same they
feel different because of girth.

Thanks for the replies

Interesting on the "thinner than an Am Std"

I'm actually favoring smaller necks these days,
even though I have a 10/56 or two
