I have a HDTC with a Standard +.030 neck backshape. Itīs the most comfortable neck I have ever played. The other HDTC I have has a Standard neck backshape and I really canīt tell any difference. Iīd like to know what do the Standard and the 62 Roundback necks measure at the first fret and at the 12th fret since I have other strats and Iīd like to get the neck shaped just like my Andersons.
Thanks.

Hi Tom, thanks for your reply.
If I may Iīd like to ask another question. I own a couple of late 70īs and early 80īs schecter strats and the neck feels pretty much like your standard neck in terms of size. Would you consider your standard neck contour and size to be close to the old schecters? Thanks in advance Tom.

as i recall, the schecter's had a bit more taper, and were a bit larger over all.
