I bet if you were to measure the fingerboard radius, it would be 6 1/2 or 8 inches. Fender got kind of extreme with their curvatures until players started complaining about strings 'fretting out' when they bent notes. The problem with some reissued models is that they don't incorporate the lessons learned from the past. You can address this in part by raising the action. Fenders actually were never meant to have ultra-low action anyway.
