I don't know the dofference between all of the necks. Are some thicker than others, or is it just the shape? What is a good size/shape for a medium hand on a 5'9" tall guy? I don't have crazy long or short fingers, just average. Thanks for your help. Also, $799 for a Baja Tele, or is there one much better for $200 more that is more refined, and would I ever notice the difference? I am just learning, so I appreciate the assistance and guidance. Thanks again.

My advice to you is to go to a music store or two and try out the Tele's in your price range. Find one that feels right to you.

Telecaster necks are somewhat more "club-like" than Strat necks. Strat necks are very slim. The neck on a Strat doesn't get very big going up the neck either, so it gives you much easier access to the upper frets.

If I could give you some info on the Jaguar or the Jazzmaster I sure would. I've never played one of them...

A bit of additional info though! DON'T BUY JACKSON! I was just lucky when I got a even-trade for a DKMG back for my Strat. (the necks aren't comfortable either.) :shock:
