Hi. I've noticed that current Tokai Love Rock neck profile is described as "Asymmetric U shape" on a few websites, eg: http://www.tokai-guitars.nl/ls136f.html
They didn't use to be described like that (last I checked was around 2017/2018). I wonder whether this means the profile has changed?
How does it compare to older neck profiles, from around 2011?
I've owned a couple lower end MIJ 2010-2011 ones and 2012 LS260. I wonder whether the "Asymmetric U shape" on Ls129/136 is any slimmer.
A comparison with recent Gibson Historics or Gibson USA guitars would also be welcome.
Secondly, the official catalogue on https://tokaijapan.com/ weirdly doesn't list Love Rocks (Les Pauls)? I don't believe they've stopped making them -- or have they?
