I really like the wine red Sheraton and the Gary Clark Casino.

Woop! One of those GC Bigsby Casinos will be swinging my way if the neck profiles nice and round.

GC Casino would be excellent in any colour except that!

Lol - but then you may as well just buy a standard Casino! He's been using one like this for a over a year now, alongside his main two

True, but a better neck profile would be good. I don't like the "bland C" they use on most Epis

It's the half-assed D profile on most the more recent ones that I don't like

I had a really fat neck on a dot once, regret selling that one. I find it a little frustrating that most guitars in the lower price ranges like Epiphone and Squier always have slim taper necks.

I'm thinking the Sheraton pro is going to be the same.
