Persist and the neck will become 'normal' for you
if not,get it shaved a bit by a good luthier .......it's most likely your only hope
I have to say the neck is fine to play, a different thumb position from what I’m used to in a medium/thin C, but I’m possibly getting used to it? Sometimes these things can be largely psychosomatic….,
Shaving the neck could open a whole can of worms, so I think it’s a trade or stick with it.
You'd have a much easier time having a new neck made by an after-market builder, based on your existing one but to the dimensions that you're after. If you're lucky, you may be able to find someone local enough or who's happy to send the in-progress neck back & forth to you for testing the profile before finishing etc.
Although shaving the neck isn't an option at the moment, if you do decide to go down that route, can I recommend Charlie Chandler for that of CCGX but I hope you get used to it.
Firstly, not looking to sell, it’s a peach and there’s so much I love about the guitar irrespective of the neck. I’m also not finding the neck impossible, just trying to work out whether I’ll be able to adjust from my usual preference of a medium slim to what is a very slightly chunkier standard.
I’m hopeful that I can adjust and muscle memory/hand position will normalise - playing seems to easing a little after what was initially an ache. I need to jam for 2-3 hrs to really know.
Don’t think I’d shave or swap the neck… given that the size is just a fraction past what I’ve been used to.
The marginal size reduction of the ‘Tyler slim neck profile’ seemed worth trying out given the above, however if it’s truely that rare I may have drop that idea
