well......my VF number 10 turned up this morning. It's lovely but it's going back to Coda unless someone wants it for ?950 (50 quid cheaper than Coda). Why is this I hear you scream???? It's the neck, it's a bit on the slim size and my great sausage fingers are having difficulty with it. My Wine Red ls-150 (and these are meant to be based on the LS-150) has a huge neck, so to find a slimmer neck is a disappointment for me. Don't get me wrong the guitar is a beauty - gorgeous looking flame, lightweight and very nice, but as always, these **** necks!
I played it for 2 mins and sadly put it back inside its case.

I'd say 60's slim. I have Gibson's with rounded 59 profiles and its not like those. The neck definitely feels shallower in the grip

I agree it's a shallow neck - similar to my SG 61 reissue. I have big hands - but found it quite comfortable to play.

And now for something completely different: what do you think of the stock pickups of the LS-1000? They come with Gotoh Custom Vintage PAFs. Are they okay for the ones who already own a LS-1000?

It seems to be christmas in February for lefties! Amo, you got a nice one. Where did you get yours from? I ordered one yesterday from Richtone. Mine will be number 8 of 20.
Is the neck too shallow? Are we talking about a thin neck which may be unstable or something between 59 and 60s profile?
I am used to the profile on my LS85Q and the Fender US std series. How do you reckon the LS1000 profile would fit in?

I've bought it from Coda, I got an ES120 from them last years and its a corker and they did a great job of setting it up too
Is yours Violin or HDC?

Mine SHALL be violin, but it is more red than the other violin finishs I have seen so far. But maybe this is a problem of the picture.
By the way: the finishs are a little problem for the series from my point of view. Amo, myself and some others can be happy with the finish of our ordered LS-1000. But some of the other finishs I have seen so far do not really seem to be the announced AAA finishs or have some other imperfections.
