Thanks for the info guys.
Andy, you said that a 16" radius makes it play like a Suhr.the radius (16") sounds like a real one but plays like a Suhr.
Neither do I. I have lots of different guitars (also around 30) I have some with a 16" radius (mainly my Larkins) with tall frets and they do indeed feel very comfortable.I personally have no issues at all switching between 16" and other commonly used radii. (I have 30 guitars).
This is exactly my thoughts. Although I have fairly big hands and sausage fingers - I have a very tight grip - I don't play hard.It is easier to grip a string and fret on a tall fret. Better articulation and easier chording. There is a case for scallops but you reach a point where it becomes easy to press out of tune. I personally think this is just bad playing
Thank you.Awesome!
The Mexican Classic 70's is a good platform for upgrades. IME better than most 70's originals.Indeed awesome.
I wish I had those skills to build my ideal 70's Strat.
