Best V Style Guitars With V Neck Profile in 2023
Here are the top V style guitars with V neck profile. This is a vintage type of neck that is not so common nowadays. Some people like it because they can rest their hand easily while letting their thumb hang over the edge of the fretboard. It's thicker than most modern necks, so it's great for playing chords but not so much for shredding.
