"Regular D neck"

[aamefford]

I was playing my KL 380 again, and just noticed how nice the neck felt. Not quite as big as the Santana, and just a bit nicer fit for my hands. I did a bit of searching on the wayback machine, and found out it's a "Regular D neck." Apparently this is the same neck as the Custom 22 Triple Soapy. I'm curious what other neck profiles might be extremely similar to the Regular D neck? That way, I can be on the lookout for that neck style in the guitars I have absolutely no need to be looking at, just in case I find one that I have absolutely no need to own. Neither the web nor the PRS neck profiles article were particularly helpful. I thought the collective mind here might be more helpful.

It's similar to the DGT as well

Everyone likes some regular D.

Damn. That could pose a problem long term. I've been curious about the DGT.

What I'd really love, is a non-trem bridged PRS with that regular D neck, or something close to it.

I'm more prone to give the regular D...

In that case, I hope your significant other's name isn't Peg.

Only when we're listening to Steely Dan.....

I'd like some regular D. Dragging this XL one around is killing me.

It terms of DGT and 513 it's the bigger frets, too.

It's the irregular D you gotta look out for.

That's what she said.

PRS' Regular necks have always been favorites. The DGT neck is close and I love the feel. But I also love the 594 and Pattern necks, so I must be pretty easy to please.

I can enjoy every size neck out there. I guess I'm just the oddball!

Regular and W/F are my favorites. There’s enough variation in the older guitars that it’s hard to pick a favorite neck for me.

Thankfully I just can’t relate!

I’d love that as well with the simple PRS wraparound bridge. My DGT neck is a bit to narrow at the nut. Well, and I also changed the pickups to a pair of Dragon 2’s (Alnico 4)….its close enough now..

The "D" profile, if I remember correctly, was introduced with the Custom22 Soapbar. Not sure if it's ever been officially on any other models. It's a comfy carve for me. I don't need no pencil necks!

I was playing my S2 Studio today. It’s a pattern regular neck. It’s pretty close, but I think the regular D is maybe a bit deeper. Or girthier, to stay in character with previous posts.

They say a regular D can definitely have plenty of girth....
