My first guitar had one and I didn't realize how much I hatred it until I bought a taylor.
Old habits die hard I guess.
I didn't get an acoustic V-neck until I'd been playing guitar for 42 yrs. and exclusively acoustic (Taylor) for the last 10 of those years, so I guess I'm an exception to your statement. I like the Taylor neck (although I don't really play it any more); I like my Martin modified V-neck; and I like my Martin modified low oval neck. I also liked my Martin low profile neck when I had it. If I had to pick a favorite of these necks, I don't know if I could. Some adjustment may be necessary but I find it no biggie. Fwiw I have smaller-than-normal hands (but I have big feet ).
