[Craig]

This information is based upon the April 1, 2021 USA Option Instruments Dealer Price List.

Guitar and Bass Neck Radius

Substitute neck radius from standard:

7 ½” This is close to the vintage 7 ¼” radius of the ‘50s and ‘60s, and feels virtually the same yet allows guitarists
just a bit more note bending before a note will “choke” or “fret out”.

9 ½” A nice mid-way point between the vintage radius and a modern 12” radius. Standard on most guitar models.

12” Flatter for deep string bends and greater ease when soloing.

NOTE: * Invader models equipped with Original Floyd Rose locking vibrato may only have 12″ radius.

BASS NECK PROFILES

Substitute neck profile from standard:

1 5/8” Medium C - 1 5/8” nut width sits right between the traditional P and J bass widths, and Leo offered this nut width in the ‘80s.
Generous edge roll with a medium depth and taper from 0.820” at 1st fret to 0.940” at 12th fret. These specs were part of the #11 and #12 necks.

1 ½” Medium C - 1 ½” nut width traditional to a J bass, Leo brought it with him to Fender Avenue for the ASAT Bass and SB-2.
1 1/2” nut width, generous edge roll, and medium taper from 0.820” at 1st fret to 0.920” at 12th fret. These specs were part of the #6 and #8 necks.

1 ¾” Medium C - 1 ¾” nut width traditional to a P bass, Leo brought it with him to Fender Avenue for the L-2000 and other models.
1 3/4” nut width, generous edge roll, medium taper from 0.820” at 1st fret to 0.940” at 12th fret. These specs were part of the #5 and #7 necks.

1 ¾” Medium C 5 - 1 ¾” nut width, generous edge roll, medium taper from 0.820” at 1st fret to 0.940” at 12th fret.
Starts out just like the 4-string 1 ¾” medium C and fans out to a wider heel. These specs were part of the #10 neck. Not available on JB-5.

1 ¾” Modern C 5 - Exclusive to the Kiloton 5 and JB-5. 1.75" nut width, generous edge roll, medium taper from 0.810" at 1st fret to 0.910" at 12th fret.

GUITAR NECK PROFILES
Substitute neck profile from standard:

Modern Classic - 1 11/16” nut width with 1 5/8” string spacing allows a generous edge roll for superb comfort without string fall-off.
Fairly slim with mild taper from 0.820” at 1st fret to 0.870” at the 12th fret.

Slim C - 1 5/8” nut width, slight edge roll, mild taper from 0.820” to 0.870”. These specs were part of the #1a neck.

Classic C - This is the profile most G&L fans associate with the post 2000 era. 1 5/8” nut width, slight edge roll, medium taper from 0.830” to 0.960”.
It starts off fairly slim and gets beefier up the neck. These specs were part of the #1 neck.

Classic Plus C - Just 1/16” wider than the Classic C with added string spacing. A good choice for players with big hands who find 1 5/8” a little too narrow.
1 11/16” nut width, slight edge roll, medium taper from 0.830” to 0.960”. It starts off fairly slim and gets beefier up the neck. These specs were part of the #3 neck.

Classic Wide C - A full 1/8” wider than the Classic C with added string spacing. The extra width is welcome not just for players with big hands,
