70's Neck Profiles

I've played a couple mid 70's Tele's and they all seemed to have really nice neck profiles.

I'm wondering if all mid-70's Tele necks were standard/uniform in their profiles?

The Bible says they're pretty much similiar, somekinda C profile, not very thin, not extremely clubby.

I agree they feel good.

I don't believe all mid 70's necks were the same. Certainly depends on the model. Beyond that, they generally tended to be full, rounded C shaped on the standard Tele.

To me, 70's Fender Tele necks are pretty much perfect. Not too big, not too small, vintage radius, vintage frets. What more could you ask for? No wonder they're appreciating in value...
