I saw a Buc-ees for the first time last fall when we went to Texas. WT actual F!!!

No. We didn't stop.

Flatter Radii for Flat Earthers!!



I love me a flatter radius for modern approaches to guitar..... but I also think letting vintage
appropriate specs be vintage appropriate specs is cool. It also doesn't hurt one's technique
to become fluent on a variety of different guitars with different specs.

When you get up to 16" it just feels like a plankety piece of plywood to my fingers.

I think if you tried it on this you would only notice it by virtue of it actually working.

Early explorers never travelled north of the fifth fret, it wasn't until the 1960s that the New World was discovered.

My Strat is 16” too

I fall in the camp of loving relic finishes. Lord knows I can't afford the real thing, so I buy what I can, and if it looks the part, awesome. If it looks absurdly overdone, that's cool too; I'm not trying to trick anyone that its the real deal. The best part of the relic finish is I don't need a guitar stand at shows, I don't lament getting a new ding when I dance into a mic stand, and they just feel more like home in my hands. A few of mine...
