Squire Strat Neck vs Les Paul Standard 50's or 60's neck

sebah · 12-22-2008, 04:23 PM

Hey,
I have been playing a squire stratocaster for about 4 years now and i am pretty sick of the crappy tone it gives me so i decided to get a gibson les paul standard. However i cant decide which neck to get 50's or 60's. The neck on my squire right now is a little bit to small and i would want a bit bigger neck but i am not sure if the 50's or 60's is the right choice.
Any suggestions?

Try 'em both out and see what feels right.

if you are playing a squier strat, a 50's neck will seem huge. a 60's neck will be bigger than the squier neck, but still very comfortable.

Thx for the reply.
Maybe this is a really retarded question but I have always wanted to know if the strings on a les paul are the same distance apart as on a fender/squire strat
