I really don't like TV yellow. Not sure if they would be vintage correct, but I might buy a Cherry one at that price. It would be even better in Pelham Blue.
Unfortunately, measurements and profiles captured will not translate perfectly into how it feels in the hand. Having built a few necks as a hobbyist, a few swipes with a rasp or 'shave can alter the 'feel' significantly and would absolutely not show up on a profile.
Yet again, there is nothing to replace picking the thing up physicaly and assessing how it feels. Reviews can give but a suggestion of what a neck may feel like, but only in the reviewers hands.
Guitars aren't like that - you can't say a Strat is "better" than a Les Paul; the best you can really hope to do is to give a balanced judgement of whether the Strat or the Les Paul you have in your hands is a good guitar for the money. Is it well made? Does it sound good? Does it play well?
The reviewers have years of experience between them and can offer an insight into these things. As for things like neck dimensions, fine - I guess it's not days and days of work to get the calipers on the neck in a couple of places and print the measurements. But are they really that meaningful?
I dunno, I think musical instruments have to be touched and held and played before you know whether or not you want them.
Even if its the same guitar the neck can vary .i have had two Baja necks .The first was superb but the second seemed hurried in comparison ,not so well shaped .
