    I imagine the CS 50th would have vintage (7 1/4" or 7 1/2") radius.

    7.5 on a 22 fret neck?

    oops! just noticed it has 21, it's the AM SRS and the AM Deluxe that have 22.

    Would still like to know what the radius of these necks is??

    thanks

    The 54 should have a 7.25 radius thats what the original 54's were.

    My American Series 50th has the standard American neck, 9.5", I guess. Nice, C-shape neck, big frets. I think the Deluxe is the same with different inlays.

    The AM STD and AM Dlx 50th are the ones with the extra fret and 9.5 radius.

    Yes, and the CS Anniversary with the 7.25" radius and one less fret apparently is still the one to take home. The American Sandard may have nice paint on it, but it represents very little of 1954.

    I agree, but wanted to check the radius as I though it may have been the first production 7.5 with 22 frets (?)
