yes, but on the 99 and early 00 Nocaster you still have the strong bridge pickup, bigger frets and a smaller neck ... different animals compared to the "normal" Time Machine ones !

Yes, the Cunetto era Nocasters had a soft V shaped neck. At least the ones my buddy and I had did. The changes you mentioned were some of the things they eventually corrected on the Time Machine series Nocasters.

I've got an '07 Nocaster and it ticks all the boxes - 9.5 rad neck, lightweight, and it sounds/plays sensational, a better guitar overall than any of the Masterbuilt Fender's or knockoffs I've owned, except for a Danocaster Blackguard, which is another outstanding guitar.

Ron Ellis Broadcaster pickups are my favourites, but I also really like Budz.
