I have found myself growing fond or the PRS guitars and neck profile.  It has a gentle V shape to it. 

Can anyone tell me how the PRS profile compares to the warmoth Clapton profile?

Thanks
 
If I had a Clapton neck I would happily tell you. Which PRS neck are you thinking of? I wouldn't say any of mine have what I'd consider a V, not even a gentle V.

Maybe it was me but it did not feel totally round.
 
My PRS has a Thin neck like the current Fender thin profile, I have a 2003 custom 22 triple soapbar ten topArtist

I haven't played one of those, but all the other SE models I've tried have the same wide/fat carve as my CU22. I think Super Turbo is right that the 59 Roundback is closest to it. That said, it's certainly possible that particular SE might have a different carve.

I have the exact guitar you list here and after reading your post I picked it up because I was intrigued at how you described the neck. Mine is definitely round, no v soft or hard is detectable. Love the guitar though.
