Scott, it has the "Early '50s rounded" neck. Thick, similar to my traditional.

It plays very well. I have to say, this has to be the nicest guitar I have ever played. It came out of the box with the setup perfect. Low action and not one fret buzzes.. The neck on this thing feels like a baseball bat = sustain..

Funny you say that.. I have not been sleeping well since I got the guitar.. When I'm at work, I think about getting home to play it..

Thanks..
