It's the difference in back contour of the neck. The shape of it. Most guitars are a standard "C" shape.

Here you can see the difference. Scroll down to the Clapton contour. The black line is a C shape, the modified line is a V neck shape.

I own both I like them both. They have a completely different but comfortable feel to them. V-Neck is slightly pointed along the center of the back of the neck. C-Neck is just a smooth C shape. Both are great.

All of the above... Plus the "V" necks are a bit chunky-er. I have both a Clapton and Mayer Sig and the Mayer is a much slimmer neck.
