I have a later sunn mustang strat type project guitar, which although the body is great, i find the neck too chunky and uncomfortable.
Most of my other guitars are shortscale which suit me so i'm not very experienced with strats, but are there any strats that have smaller and thinner necks,and could anyone advise if there's any type of strat neck available -fender,squier etc that would fit it?

some of the C shapes are slimmer. You can get the neck shaved, and shot with a clear coat for less than a new neck though.

Maybe a different radius rather than changing neck profile would work better for you?

I have small hands. I feel that the soft "v" neck suites me well.

Hi ploppy: I believe the regular American Standard neck is about as slim as any that Fender offer. Far as my hands have discovered, anyhow.

But then it depends what you mean by thin: Fender don't do anything as skinny as Ibanez's Wizard necks: that's not Fender's thang. Different manufacturers, different schtick. You pays your money, you takes your choice.

Cheers - C

The thinnest and most comfortably-playing Strat necks I own are the CIJ '65 Premium Re-issues -- 7.25" radius, rosewood with ivory-colored bound fretboards. They're both a very shallow "D" profile, a couple of millimeters thinner than a MIM 60's Classic Series neck.

Thanks for the speedy replies everyone!
Ok, so i have a jagstang and a 69ri mustang, which both necks on those feel very comfortable and i'm guessing they compare to the old A width necks?My 67 bronco tho' has a B width and that feels great - apologies if this sounds a stupid question but are there any strat necks that would compare to these (scale aside that is) and would the neck pocket be an issue or are they all a standard size with fenders?

The "B" width was the standard back in the day and I believe most modern Fender guitar necks have a nut width that is close to that. Neck pockets are relatively standardized for Fender guitars -- you shouldn't have any major issues swapping furniture around. I've installed MIJ necks on MIM bodies and vice versa without incident.
