Can you provide the neck radius of this LG3005

Can you provide the neck radius of LG3005 #4460 originally built for Kim Stone? I love the radius and it seems to be a bit flatter than my other LG3005.

Unfortunately, no, we can't.

All of our basses (and guitars even) have a 16" radius, which is VERY flat. If there is anything different about the LG you got from Kim Stone, we won't have a record of it at this point.

Sorry...

Any local repair shop that does fret work should have a set of guages that can measure the radius. Takes all of a minute to do if you have the right tools handy...

What about making up some card radius guides, and checking each to your bass?

Print these out to scale(you can check with the black one inch block), and you'll have guages in the most common radii.
