For me it was a JACKSON SLSMG MIJ,wanted one for the longest time (6-7years)finaly find one this year for 300$ CAD and just never felt it ,sounds really good ,but the neck profile was not weath i was used with other MIJ JACKSONa little to thick for my taste
Same thing happened to me. I had a DKMG Dinky that I loved until it was stolen, then years later I got the SLSMG assuming that it would have a similar feel to the neck, but it's not even close. When you look up the differences between a dinky and a soloist, usually all you see is the glaringly obvious bolt on vs neck-thru, maybe someone talking about how the dinky body is 7/8 the size of a soloist, but I had never realized that their necks are totally different shapes. My SLSMG neck profile was super "shouldery".
Just curious is anyone knows, is that the way all soloists will feel as compared to a dinky? Are they like officially different neck profiles? Because I love my dinky but I also love a neck-thru guitar, so I always see soloists and think I want that!! but then I remember that it might not be anything like my Japanese dinky...
