I've been using my modern "C" the most, but also like the soft"V" and even "U" and "D" shaped for certain playing.

I also like a compound radius (9.5 to 12").

I like the C neck, but that's what i grew up with. I had a 68 Fender Mustang when i was 12 and always felt great. I have several Fender's and they all have C necks. Some have Lindy Fralin's and Duncans, but that's another conversation all together.

Not to be confused with the U-neck or D-neck?

I recently purchased a special edition (Korean) Lite Ash Strat. I like the guitar very much but was surprised to find a “V” shaped neck. The Fender website specs it out as having a “modern ‘C’ shape” neck. In reading reviews of the guitar, I now see that the “V” neck is, in fact, standard. Is it considered a “soft" or "hard V”? Other than being a throwback to the 50’s guitars, are there any practical advantages? I’m still getting used to it.
