I'm not able to find through search what the A, B and C neck dimensions are. It's pretty tough to expect anything from putting the letter "A" or such into a search engine. Usually, it's too few characters.

So, I'm really curious what the complete specs would be for these three styles. Would someone please elaborate? Thanks :)

A necks were 1.5 and they sold P basses in the 70s with a A neck which would be called "jazz width" by some, i wasn't alive back then so i dont know if it cost more to have a P bass with a A neck added or not , but essentially it gave players an option, nowadays a american standard has one nut width thats it.

Nope , the old original 1.75 was C width.

I know they had a D width to but i dont think it was ever in production on basses and was limited to acoustics and a few electrics like SRV's strat.

When someone says C shape i believe there referring to the shape of the neck , like old V necks strats had a neck that on the back was V shaped , claptons blackie has a V shape neck so its not the width but the shape of the back .



Of course I dont claim to be a fender expert
