Shape of Santana Neck

[Dakari]

Hey all!

I wanted to try a shorter scale length guitar and played a SC245 that I really loved. However, I saw that the neck on the Santana model was different and was curious if anyone knew what the shape of the neck was? I'm familiar with fender shape necks and les paul.

Thanks all!

Closest to Gibson 50s neck and or X-Factor Gibson ( IMHO )

I agree... close to a '50's les paul...

They vary somewhat from year to year it seems, but earlier Santana's could have huge necks. As mentioned, they tended to be similar to mid-50's Gibson's, or even as full as the Fender 'Nocaster' necks of that same era. Mine's an '03 and has quite the stout neck, noticeably fuller than a PRS wide-fat.
