Sweeeet. Owned several Sils and they've all been great - just the skinny necks I have a problem with

Well my hands are tiny so no problem for me  :lol:
The thing I like also is that the radius is not as high as with the Ibanez. It feels much more comfortable and less tiring for me.

Now do you find them skinny or narrow? i have an 97 axis, and the neck is palm filling but narrow feeling compared to others guitars. They definitely have a "signature" feel.

I don't know, seems close to a fender to me, but I haven't played much of those. It was odd at the beginning, but now I'm used to it.

The necks are superb (but not for Philly!  :lol:)

Oh no, I agree, they are superb, just not to my taste.

I think they're both narrow (like an old Fender) and quite shallow.  Even though I go on about big necks all the time, I don't actually mind if they're fairly narrow, I quite like a Fender 1-5/8" nut.  It's very common for necks to be wide and thin, but just to be difficult I'd be happier if they were narrow and fat.  :lol:
