There are quite a few CJs out there being sold for fair prices. There are plenty of sound clips out there too. I don’t know enough about Taylor necks to offer any useful insights, but I find the Goodall necks to be far from chunky. They are comfortable to me, but I am not overly sensitive to neck profiles.

To second his point, when I auditioned the TROM and a Goodall GC, the GC came home with me and through a lot of other mail order Goodall brides, it stayed until a McCollum unseated it as “the one”.
I came to believe the GC was the ultimate guitar shape for performance and comfort.
