I’m looking to have a neck made, as close as possible to my Ernie ball music man EVH neck,
The only difference is I prefer 12” radius board compared to the 10” radius of the music man…
Does anyone really do this ‘exactly’?
Any of you guys have experience with Locke, Musikraft, USA Custom guitars, Warmoth?
The cost is not a big issue as much as getting the neck ‘perfect’, exactly like the music man asymmetrical profile.

I think that Warmoth does that asym neck.....

Might want to reach out the Parklane Guitars. He left musikraft and is a pretty straight shooter in regards to if he can pull it off.
 
I have a Warmoth EVHMM back profile neck with a 10" radius and 6105 frets and it feels just like my old EBMM axis, I had them both at the same time so I compared them directly. I got this neck for my Jake E Lee guitar circa 2009 or so it's pretty much spot on to the Axis profile. I have come to dislike the 10" radius because all my other guitars that I love are all 12" radius so good call on that. I also found I prefer 6100 Jumbo frets, the 6150's are just too small for my liking. I am still playing this neck because I am to lazy to build another neck for this guitar but I find I like a slightly beefier profile with more of a heavy C profile like my old 1983 Kramer profile.

I'd say either Musikraft or Warmoth can do a good EVMM axis neck profile if that's what you are looking for.

Musikraft has a beefier profile that matches my old Kramer I can't remember what they call but it is almost spot on my old 83 Kramer neck I love it, I have that neck in a box right now waiting to be assembled on one last Kramer Pacer replica project that is my Nuno Bettencourt guitar if I ever get around to it, maybe this winter..... :p

Stick with that 12" radius and whatever frets float your boat.....:unsure:
