The Jag-Stang I tried out at a Music-Go-Round had the best feeling neck I've ever played. Perfection. I felt like a giant even with my carny hands. I would have bought it, but I was broke and they wanted too much for it anyway.

Jag-stang necks feel quite similar to an A width mustang/duo II neck, but maybe a touch wider at the nut, from memory. Robroe has both, maybe he's done a direct comparison.

It's got the profile and taper of a shred machine's neck, with the radius, the look and the feel of a modern Fender.
YES. although in my case it's a 1966 Hagstrom II neck, with the finish completely worn off. So nice...

squier super sonic! that's the perfect neck for me, it just feels so comfortable, never played another one that i liked so much. It sucks that it doesn't fit other guitars, or i would have one on my main guitar.

I actually don't think i'll ever buy anything else then fender 24'' 7,5 neck again. The way the neck feels is the most important thing to me, and i can just use the pickups i won't for different sounds...

shortscale: my cp jaguar neck, thing is chunky and awesome. afraid i'm not the biggest fan of the 24" necks anymore though.

full scale: definitely my cv esquire neck, although that might change once i get my hands on one of them vm jazzmasters.

You should just harangue all the Jag-Stang owners for their necks and get it out the way.

The Jag-Stang 2.0 would just be much nicer with a Jag-Stang neck. And I asked him two times about selling his. I don't understand what the big deal is.. Over exaggerating much? I know man. You've been on the forum for a long time and I'm newer. Pretty cool dude. I get picked at for the smallest things.

Too expensive. Once in a while you see them pop up for around $200.00 but they seem to have gone up in price at the moment.

I like these necks too I just cant stand strat body's for some reason. I just hate em. I don't know what it is about them.

And definitely the Jag-Stang necks feel really nice and the frettwire is perfect. If anyone sees one pop up for cheep let me know please. (:

MIM 72 tele deluxe Reissue. BIG MAPLE NECK! BIG HEADSTOCK!
Would prefer the darker amber finish like on the 50's classic, but the feel wins out.

For fender necks, I'd say the KC Mustang is my fav at the moment. I've heard some people refer to it as being quite chunky, but to be honest, it feels the opposite to me. For polar opposite, by Jem neck is my favourite full scale neck.
