I know a sideways thumb is not the proper way to play, however, having broken both wrists in the past it is the only way I can play comfortably. I’ve tried out several brands and models of guitars so far and the only one that feels comfortable is a Mitchell MS450. It is stated as having a 24.75’’, 12’’ radius, “1960s Slim-Taper Shallow-C” neck profile. My issue is that that does not translate well to other brands. Can anyone offer some advice on which brands/models to try out that has the same or very similar neck profile ?

Thanks in advance. Cheers.
