N2 NECK vs CA
I am considering trying a CA because of the cramping issues I've been having in my neck hand. What are the differences in the N2 I'm currently playing and the CA Legacy neck?
I do want to stay with the dred size body.

I have an old Rainsong with the N1 neck, as well as a CA Legacy.
The CA neck feels wider and thinner with a flatter radius....

Have a Rainsong N2 and had a prePeavey CA Legacy. CA is thinner but for me had an annoying widening as you went up the neck (may not be an issue for a non thumb grabber), seemed like sharper sides. I believe the Legacy neck stayed the same with Peavey.

Wider or thicker doesn't sound like what I'm looking for. Hopefully I can find one to try.
Thanks

The N2 neck is more like some vintage Gibson necks - rounder & deeper with more meat in the shoulders than the CA. The CA is more like a Taylor neck, much slimmer than the N2 with a low profile & less meat in the shoulders.

Based on what I've read, I would certainly be interested in finding or trading my H DR1000 N2 to the same Dred-style with the N1 neck or another brand Carbon Dred size guitar with a slimmer neck.

Vance,
Ok not the Dread but the WS1000 is probably the best guitar they make. This one has the N1 http://www.acousticguitarforum.com/f...d.php?t=363773
