The hunt for the killer neck

I still haven't found a neck for my am. deluxe body. I missed out a few on ebay, so I am still looking for the perfect one. Here is what I look for:

Radius: I prefer 9.5". I don't like that you need to have higher action with 7.25". And larger than 9.5" feels funny.

Frets: I prefer medium jumbo. Taller feels slippery, and I don't like that the notes can go sharp if you push too hard.

Maple or rosewood: Rosewood for the looks. And I am also looking for a less bright sound.

Neck shape: Preferably a soft "v". But they are not easy to find, with the specs above. I also like the 60s "c" shape, because they are a bit thicker than modern "c".
