I am interested in picking up a yellow Valentine for a transformation project into a reliced, P90-fueled punk rock monster, and I have searched the forums to no avail looking for specs on the Valentine neck.

Can anyone provide information on the profile and thickness?

Thanks you!

Profile is a rounder curve than the normal Fender medium C. I've got a Tele with a Warmoth '59 roundback neck that is very similar so if you've ever played one of those it's a good comparison.

Nut width is 1 5/8" and both my Valentines are at about 1.64" for the actual neck width.

Neck depth for my Valentine Tremolo is .767" at the first fret and my Valentine BFR is .821" at the first fret.

LMK if you need anything else measured.

Thank you so much! That is very helpful.

How about neck depth/thickness at the 12th fret?
