How would you describe the neck profile on the 1680? It's not V but is it C or D or what? Ta.

As I recall it was both wider and a bit more chunky/hand-filling than an Elite 1778LX and Legend 2077LX.

I'd call it a Db. ;) Seriously, I'd describe it as a shallow D.

BTW, for the neck, I'd call it one of the best they've made.

TJ - I can honestly say the 1680 is the best guitar I've ever owned or played. Tone, volume, playability and subtle good looks; the 1680 is just a great guitar. I find myself playing later and later into the evening - to the detriment of sleeping. My playing has improved, and I blame it on the 1680.

And, in the tone of Dweezil's thread, I just love the neck. I'm 6'5'', with big hands, and the 1680 just fits.
