The neck profile is a real winner too, making it easy to play for extended periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's significantly thicker and warmer, offering more low-end punch and sustain than a single-coil Tele pickup, but retains some of that characteristic Tele clarity.
The '70s C profile is generally considered a mid-sized neck, so it’s a good compromise – comfortable for most, but might feel a little narrow for those with very large hands.
The Vintera II series offers excellent value; while not quite as refined as the American Professional or Elite lines, the build quality is solid, and the materials are well-chosen for the price point.
