What's the neck profile like?

I think it is a 60's profile.
Oh and I was wrong about the pickup isn't a '57 Classic. It is a modern pickup,maybe a 498T. like this
Also,I think the fretboard is torrefied maple
Like a Suhr

To be fair i would not turn my nose up at that, i love Juniors. But why oh why put a 'bucker in there? A Zebra one at that.

Haha,well no accounting for taste huh ...
Anyway I think it sounds really good. When you engage the coil tap it sounds pretty much like a P-90.
