nut 1.704 wide and between the nut and first fret it is .892 thick

2nd fret 1.751 wide .902 thick

4th fret 1.841 wide .918 thick

8th fret 1.965 wide .963 thick

12th fret 2.059 wide .989 thick

15th fret 2.142 wide .993 thick

21st fret / heel 2.199 wide

this neck is really thick and the profile feels like a C and D hybrid its a bit in between those if that makes sense. very very comfy though. the neck thickness seems to add to the sustain also, or maybe its just my imagination :lol:

I will get measurements of my highway one and American standard tomorrow and add them for comparison.


{[ADD]}

the highway one and american standard neck are identical by .005 +- so no point in listing them seperately.

nut 1.701 and space between nut and first fret .820 thick

2nd fret 1.748 wide .823 thick

4th fret 1.839 wide .838 thick

8th fret 1.951 wide .846 thick

12th fret 2.040 wide .859 thick

15th fret 2.112 wide .979 thick

rite at the heel against the body it is .998 almost the same as the hot rod

21st fret / heel 2.197 wide not much difference there either

The '62 HR has the thickest neck of any of mine,including a '59 thinskin from Wildwood...it feels good,I alternate between the two alot...there's enough difference to make it interesting.
