The Skylark-with-a-Byrdland-scale-neck idea continues to percolate. (Hmm...SkyLARK...BYRDland...hmm....) Since I can't wrap my hands around a Skylark neck, some questions: 1) How would you characterize a Skylark neck profile? (C-shaped? D-shaped? Rounded-V shaped? I wonder about how the shoulders come away from the fretboard edge. Are you able to compare the neck profile to that of any other popular guitar?) 2) How do the HG and HGR pickups compare? These message boards are fascinating--love the pics of instruments in process. Thanks!

Of course you can order any neck shape you like. 2) HG and HGR differ only in their cosmetics. HGRs have 4-mounting holes and those cool curved sides. Internally they are identical. Glad you're enjoying the message boards - I think they are a blast!
