I *love* my G&L Fallout Tribute and am considering adding a USA made Fallout (did I mention I *love* this model?). The G&L website says the USA Fallout has a "Slim C" neck profile and the Tribute has a "Medium C" neck profile.
IMO, the "Medium C" neck profile on my Tribute feels awfully thin. I once held a G&L having a #1 (Classic C) neck profile and it felt much thicker in the cup of my hand (which is good because I have long fingers and the thicker body meant less "pinching" == less hand fatigue).
Thank you,
Garth
Slim C - 1 5/8ā nut width, slight edge roll, mild taper from 0.820ā to 0.870ā. These specs were part of the #1a neck.
NOTE: * All profiles have a +/- 0.015" tolerance
* SC-2, Fallout and F-100 have no neck profile options available at this time.
