I think enough of CCs for me at the moment and decided to go for Joe's Skinner burst instead.
Would like a SG someday but I still can't get used to one
Here's my take
CC 1 - medium neck, comes with out of phased pickups
CC 4 - medium comfortable neck, lively and articulate sounding (CustomBucker pickups)
CC 8 - slightly bigger medium neck, hotter and more aggressive bite (CustomBurstbucker 2 & 3). also very articulate.
R8 - chunkier neck, good sounding guitar but not as define as the CCs
BFG - Wide 50s neck, no finish literally on everything. Very raw. Love the middle position (P90s and BB3)
Faded Studio - 50s necks, comfy maybe due to no finish and no frills. overall darker sounding
'08 Standard - Asymmetrical neck, modern hardwares. Good guitar, does the job but not as refine as reissues.
Good info! Do you have a favourite among those? On playability and tone.
Regarding F space or not, its really not an issue, some guitars with slanted pickups are even more misaligned.
