Furch/Stonebridge neck profile?

[JimmyJeff1]

While doing some research for a friend, I've become very interested in Furch/Stonebridge for myself . I'm some distance from the nearest dealer and wanted to see if I could get a feel for their neck profile. I'm confident that the nut width will work okay, but wanted to find out more about the shape. The necks that are most comfortable to me right now are Taylors, Gibson LG 2 American Eagle, and an older Pono 000 that I have. Any insight would be appreciated especially from those who have played Furch/Stonebridge and can compare to experiences with one of these other models. Thanks. JJ1

My 2011 OM-32 is kind of modified V, maybe 1mm thicker than 2015 D-18. Millenium is more like low oval.

If you like the low profile neck such as Taylor I would stick with a millennium series guitar (20 through 25)

The vintage series, until recently, varied through out the years, but for the most part was a chunkier type of neck. The newer ones (within the last couple of month) do have a lower profile.

I had a Stonebridge G23CC and found the neck to be very much like a Taylor neck.

Thanks, all. JJ1

Hi,
according to Stageshop, a large Hungarian based Furch-dealer, the "new Vintage series guitars come with Millennium neck profile since July 2016. The V shape is no longer available".
I´ve been mailing them back and forth because I´m in the proces of ordering a custom guitar based on their OOM35 model
