New neck contours????

[dandegeit]

Hey

I have a nice 92 SR and a 2006 Sterling. Both of them, I know the neck feel. I went to a store in my local area to find awsome new stock. I picked up a very nice natural stingray and a natural sterling. I found the neck on the sterling to be thicker than both of mine and the Stingray was wider.

I am I going nuts!!! Both felt very different to me. I know I ve been cheating on them both with my AXIS SS but this couldnt be.

Did EB change the neck shape on their basses? Is there a process that changes the shape depending on wood, temperature, grain or something I cant think of? Wondering if there is cause I thought they used CNC to mill the necks and that would make them all VERY steady and similar.

WONDERING

Nope. The neck curves haven't changed. Your current basses have just been worn down and broken into with you playing them. Like a nice pair of loafers or sneakers. Great feeling too!

ill agree with the point regarding the fact that your basses have worn in. Also, in my experience, a small change in action could give you the impression that the neck shape's different
