I love my '92 Standard, but sometimes I wish its neck was just a tad thicker. Just because of what it is, I want to upgrade to a new(er) Custom 24 someday, but I've been lamenting the loss of the Pattern Regular option, which seemed rarer and rarer over the years it was available. And yet with that said, I've been messing around with brand new SE Standard 24s and Custom 24s at Guitar Center while waiting to do my weekly music lesson; their SE Wide Thin necks feel thicker than the neck on my Standard. But going by the measurements on the Neck Shape chart on the main site, the Pattern Thin is actually closer to that size.
I know the Pattern Thin is supposed to be the "ideal" version of the US Wide Thin, so I guess this means the ideal variation of the Wide Thin is/was the ones that came out on the thicker side?
