One person’s chunky is another’s a bit slim or too fat

It is deffo 43 mm and I would say it is closer to a 60's profile than a 50's profile.

here is decent review of its sister guitar:

Thanks.  I would prefer a fatter rather than thinner neck so, in the absence of being able able to try it out, I shall have to pass.  Sorry.  GLWTS.

Totally understand, shame you couldn't try it though.

It certainly is, on top of which I am 20 miles south of Bedford

Does it have a case?  Thinking of getting it collected by UPS but would need to be cased.

Hi mate, yes has its original quality hard case  and will be properly boxed. UPS is a good choice. Would have to be after Xmas though as I'm really busy just now but have next week off.

OK. Let's see what we can do next week.

Happy Christmas...

I'm happy to get it boxed up Sunday ready for collection, if you do decide to go for it it might be best to get it on its way to you earlier in the week so as to avoid it sitting in a warehouse over the New Year period.

have a great Xmas

That's a scenario I know well, I've been known to be a bit devious at times

Me too, if I'm honest, though can understand in a way being that the brand does not have a high profile. Getting close to the point where I might withdraw it and enjoy it myself for a while longer.

Just bought a Stanford Crossroads Thinline 30 and I can honestly say that I'm blow away at how good it is! Looks, feels and plays like a much more expensive guitar!
A lot of bang for your buck as they say!!!
I'm sure this guitar would be an amazing addition to anyone's collection!

Thanks for the endorsement @Mark1985.

I too was very pleasantly surprised when mine arrived, I did consider the 30 but already had a few P90 equipped guitars.

I totally get it why folk are not keen on taking a leap of faith on unknown brands, I used to be the same but I have branched out of late and have come to realize that there are some very fine guitars being produced in the far East.

It hasn't stopped me spending silly amounts on high profile brands because deep down I am a guitar snob I suppose
