Silver Sky Maple Neck Shape

[bluesmantis]

I've been searching for a 2020 Silver Sky with the modified neck shape that has the rounder shoulders.

It was announced that 2020 would mark the year maple necks/fretboards were offered.

I'm curious, does anyone know if the maple neck has that rounder Neck profile?

If not, anyone knows when these 2020 models will be available? where?

Thanks

PS. I've been working with my Sweetwater sales engineer to set up a return for the 2019 I bought. I love everything about the guitar except the neck shape. It simply doesn't not work with my hands. I've been playing for 25 years and my hands aren't changing what they like.

Nope, only the 2020 Rosewood fretboard models have the new neck profile. The maple fretboard models are the same as the 2018-19 rosewood fretboard necks. There’s a thread here about a new rosewood board model that someone got, but I haven’t seen any out there yet. I’d love to try one myself - I have a 2018 and I’m OK with the neck profile, but I don’t love it. I’d think about selling and getting the new one if there’s enough difference. But I’m gonna have to find one and try it first.
