Can someone tell me the difference between the neck on a 50's Classic Stratocaster and the neck on a '57 reissue? I own a '99 50's Classic, but I've never seen a '57 reissue.

 

Are the necks essentially the same? Would you be able to tell the difference blindfolded?

I've played the 52 Tele and 50's Reissue tele

 

 

not the same guitars, but you get the idea

 

 

 

the neck on the 52 is nitro while the 50's has poly

 

 

the 52 is noticeably stickier, its a little bigger too

 

 

they both have the same radius, fret size, etc.

 

 

they're extremely similar, but I prefer the feel of the 50's better
