fender vintage hot rod stratocaster
Is there a difference between the neck of a v neck stratocaster and a 57′ hot rod stratocaster.?
I read here on musicians friend that the vintage hot rod has a Custom slim-shape V-profile. Is this different from the traditional v neck profile or are they the same? If anyone has played both of them then it would be nice to know the difference between the neck contours.

The standard V-neck is just a little wider. I personally have big fingers and find slim, small necks, uncomfortable. I custom build guitars (luthier) and all (maybe not ALL) of my necks are 1 7/8 in. wide at the nut, instead of 1 11/16. If your fingers are smaller, you may like the slim necks.
