Johnny Marr Jaguar Neck Profile

Post by atomicwash » Fri Apr 19, 2024 5:29 am

I have three Marr Jags. The profile measurement at the first fret (top of fretboard to back of neck) is .82, .83, and .86 inches. I like a nice medium neck and love the .86 profile. It has a little more shoulder than the other two. Looking at online stores, it seems the .83 neck is typical.

Do any of you have larger profile Marr necks? Or is my .86" a rare one? Thanks.

In My experience - the .82/.83 is smaller than average.from 1st to 7th.

Haven't measured mine, but I have one from one of the first runs (MKO) and a FYD one. They're in the .83 to .86 ballpark. The same goes for most of the ones I've seen at wildwoodguitars.com (they post neck measurements).
