nickeyg -> RE: Guitar/Neck Feel Question (Jan. 5 2006 18:58:34)

Anders, good points. My LoPrinzi is at work so I will check, but I'm pretty sure that my LaMancha has a thinner neck. So a thick neck can change the feel of the strings significantly? The strings feel fatter on the LoPrinzi even when I'm playing just open strings. As for the fret wire, it is something which I've never really paid any attention to, but now will try to be more aware. The order of importance of a guitar in my mind is 1) feel 2) sound 3) appearance. If the guitar sounds great and feels like crap, i.e. my LoPrinzi, then it really doesn't let you play to your potential and its easy to get frustrated because its so hard to be accurate. On the other hand if it feels great and sounds like crap then its still fun to play beacuse its easy to play well and therefore you can focus less on technique and more on emotion. Trying to quantify the neck feel is something which I think is really important, Nick
