Neck Radius Nickel and "action"

Hi Mr. Campilongo - Your phrasing is gorgeous as well as your tone. Couple questions re gear (what else) I know you like 009- 042s but do you like so called "pure nickel" wound or nickel plated/steel types? Does the 7.25 neck radius hinder bends or is your action quite high enough to alleviate those kind of bends that fret out. Ever considered 9.5 neck radius? Last of two questions( :-) ) What does (.780" 1st fret - .970" 12th fret) means as listed by Fender on your Jim Campilongo Artist Series Telecaster neck. Is that the action hieght? Thanks! Joe

    Hey TeleJoe, I posted this somewhere else that I seen this question. I'm thinkin the .780" is the neck thickness at the first fret n .970" is the neck thickness (fingerboard to back of neck) at the 12th fret. That seems logical to me...........but maybe not to anyone else.
