The only way to deal with it, is to change necks.. The thing about the 7.5" radius (Vintage Fender) is that it is good for chords, bad for bending. A larger radius, like 16" is great for bending strings, but harder to chord because the fretboard is flatter and you have to press a little harder to make the chord.

You might want to take a gander at http://www.warmoth.com/ to get an idea what is available in replacement necks.
