No, the neck is actually narrower than a Les Paul...but the neck is thicker, more of a "U" shaped neck (kind of like a baseball bat), much different than the shallower "V" shape of a vintage Strat or "C" shape of a Tele. It was quite a change...the neck felt slightly odd at first, since I'd been playing a Les Paul or a Strat for 30 years prior but after about 5 seconds, it felt just perfectly comfortable...now it's the Les Paul & Strat that feel "weird" when I play them.
EDIT: about the closest I could compare the feel of the neck to would be a Gibson Flying V.
