Legacy - neck profile help

Post by cary chilton »

I have a 3 bolt Legacy and the maple neck's profile is awesome! I love it. I have George Fullerton V style neck and it WAS my favorite before buying the vintage NOS Legacy. I am guessing it has a C but I don't know. AT first I thought was a D shape because that what feels like nearing the 10th fret... 1st to 9th fret is more C shape looking

Upon review of the G&L neck profile list they don't list a D shape

Which C shape do you I have? What is the standard Legacy neck profile ?

Yes, it's probably a C shaped neck. I am not aware of G&L offering a D shape.
To find the one in the chart closest to your Legacy's neck, you will need to
measure the neck depths at the 1st and 12th frets.

The standard neck size of the USA Legacy is the #1.

Hope this helps.
