Why are they not allowing the Rhythm circuit option? I have an AM Pro and love it but I honestly think many aren’t buying because that trademark Jazzmaster feature is missing. I’d order a Mod Shop Jazzy if I had that option.

I’d do the walnut finish, tortoise guard, Am Pro neck with rosewood, 65 pickups...basically an Elvis Costello Signature but with my favorite Jazzy neck and pickups.

Just playing around on the Mod Shop again since it's been a while. They seem to now have a bunch more options and some really great new colors available. Unfortunately, there still doesn't seem to be any way to get a matching headstock. That might get me to pull the trigger. That "Penny" color looks really good with a mint guard.

Matching headstocks and I'm in!

Does anyone know which guitars Fender is making that have the C-to-D 9.5" radius?

The C-to-D shape was supposed to be exclusive to the Mod Shop, and I'm not aware that they've used them anywhere else. When I got a 2019 Mod Shop with the C-to-D neck, the production date on the neck was still from 2017.
All pain and troubles melted away like lemon drops beyond the contrails across the sky.

Please forgive me, but I'm confused- are you implying they are supposed to be exclusive to the Mod Shop, but they might be standard production necks?

It does make you wonder why they would have a neck profile that's impossible to try before purchasing, especially since you can't return it.

C->D profiles were on Elites at the very least, so you can try the profile out on those, just not with a 9.5 radius.

I hate to raise a thread back from the dead, but there's not much on the modshop offerings beyond this thread. Has anyone else gotten one?

Since it's the only way to get a (new), I've been toying with the idea and playing with the color options. The continued lack of matching headstock option is a real bummer but the antique olive paired with a black pickguard compels me.
