  • Neck Radius

    Can anyone tell me the neck radius on the Fort Worth Charvels?

    Re: Neck Radius

    The fretboard radius was compound. I've heard both 10"-16" and 12"-16" so I'm not positive which it was. Dave (Budman) once posted a brochure from the late '80s that had a good explanation & specs for the compound radius boards, but I lost it. The Model 7 and the Legend may be exceptions. I'm pretty sure the Model 7 has a 12" radius (not compound), but I can't find any reference to it in catalogs. All I know is mine sure doesn't look or feel as flat at the 22nd fret as my other Charvels.

      It was 12"-16". Check out page 2 of the '88 price list (thanks to ZZB for posting it):
