TA Neck Dimensions

[JoeB63]

Does anyone know the actual neck thickness dimensions of the following TA neck profiles (measured at the first and 12th frets)?:

TA Standard

TA Standard (+.030) - I guess if you know the last one, this one is pretty easy

'62 Roundback

Cobra Standard

Cobra '62 Roundback

Thanks in advance,
Joe

The only one I know for sure is the 62RB:

1 5/8" Nut: .830 1st Fret .960 12th Fret
1 11/16" Nut: .850 1st Fret .980 12th Fret

Hello Stan and Joe,

I am new to this site and will try to help by sharing a response to a similar question that was sent to me last month by Tom @ Anderson Guitars (who has been extremely helpful to me):

We have three basic neck profiles:

Tom Anderson Standard: our most popular neck profile is a slim, sleek silhouette with not a lot of depth change from the nut to the 12th fret. they start off .810" thick at the first fret, and have about .06" worth of taper. It is offered in two nut widths, 1 5/8" and 1 11/16". And if you prefer the feel of a bigger neck, we offer this same silhouette increased in depth by +.030, +.050, +.070 or +.100 of an inch.

62 Round Back: Slightly deeper than the Tom Anderson Standard at the nut, it starts at .830" thick at the first fret, it has quite a bit of depth change (taper) from nut to 12th fret, about .125". It is offered in two nut widths-1 5/8" and 1 11/16". The 1 11/16" also has a +.020 of-an-inch deeper backshape than the 1 5/8" version.
50's V: is a "V" backshape. It is offered in two depths, small and large and one nut width-1 5/8". The small V is .850 at the first fret and goes up to .910" at the body joint, and is a soft V. the large V is .900" at the first fret, and about .970" at the joint, and is a sharper V.

Cobra Necks: We have 3 neck backshapes for our shorter, 24 ¾-inch scale length, Cobra.

Cobra Standard: Our most popular Cobra neck backshape is a medium depth backshape for just the perfect "not too big and not too small but just right" neck. It measures about .825 at the first fret, and has .09" taper.

TA CO: T/A Standard for Cobra. Same dimensions as our TA standard long scale neck.

62 Cobra: Our 62 Roundback, 1 11/16" silhouette for Cobra. same size as the 1 11/16" long scale neck.

I hope this helps.

Mark

The Anderson Forum Home Page is in the expanson process and one of the linked areas scheduled as a definition of the various neck carves and their dimensions. The info mark posted will appear there in the near future!

Other areas to be opened up are: an Image Galery and Music Using An Anderson. Shuld be fun...stay tuned!
