I have a bunch of Paul Gilbert DVDs never saw a scalloped neck on there any where.

I have scalloped neck I'll sell you. It is pretty nicely done smooth no gouges are any crap like that. It is 1 3/4 wide nicely D shape not real thick not real thin. No nicks in the back of the neck and no wear on the frets. All the fret markers are still there. Schaller mini tuners with above the nut string lock. Made by Chandler in San Fransisco in the 80s. 22 frets with heal truss rod adjuster. The only thing even close to wrong is there are a couple sets of holes where the neck bolts to the body but nothing that should cause any problems.

Bottom one in both pics.
