Neck Feel - Profile and Fretboard

For those lucky owners. How would you characterize the neck? I heard someone on the Les Paul Forum state that they did not like how the fretboard felt. I am used to playing Les Paul Standards and Customs. My favorite neck profile is the 1960 Reissue (R0). However, I recently got a Axcess and I am okay with that as well. I do not like the squared tall frets of the later Customs. I like the frets to be wider and a bit shallow. How would you say the Dark Fire is?

 

Thanks.

the neck is very playable - its nice and chunky 50's type under the low E,A,D, yet slimmer 60's style under the G, B, High E. (egg shape)

The Neck reminds me of a Ernie Ball / Music Man Axis type profile - but I like the 24 3/4 scale.
