George Lynch Neck Question
George Lynch Neck Question
Good day all, I'm thinking about hunting down a used Lynch Sig, preferably a Kami, Skulls and Snakes, or Sunburst Tiger. The only Lynch Sig I've ever played was 15+ yrs ago and it was a 1st gen Skull and Snakes (with the vintage plus style headstock) and I didn't like the neck which I found to be very wide and very flat. What are the current generation Lynch necks like? How do they compare to the ESP Thin U and Extra Thin U?
Defo try a old school Lynch Kami or Purple Tiger before buying blind so to speak. The necks are BIG..wide, flat and quite clubby. I f you have no issues going between different types of guitar/neck profile..no prob. If your very much a certain type of neck player...ie Ibanez RG550, the Lynch's may not be for you.
As for the neck profile's on the new models. You will have to ask an expert here! Lynch has recently said he himself isn't playing necks quite as wide/big as he was back in the day. I presume the models made for the retail stores are still to the original spec, but maybe..if Lynch has change his spec, maybe the new builds reflect the change too.
They are wide and flat. I have small hands but the necks are not to bad for me as they are thin enough.
