That's my understanding too. My first guitar was a strat copy which came with vintage string spacing at the bridge and a 44 or 45 mm nut. I thought this was holding me back (both picking hand and fretting one). I sold the guitar. Years later I realise that this spacing was not the issue at all, I actually lack it. Nowaday "large" neck are uncommon.

It sounds as if you're saying that the "arched fretboard" is unique to your instruments. Every major acoustic guitar maker (non-classical) does this. Also, it would be helpful if you specified the nut width and string spacing at the saddle.

I found my answer to my problem. I inherited big fat fingers from my father.I'm okay playing the piano but when I started tinkering around with the guitar this has been the issue the whole entire time. Many times I just put down the guitar because I can't play it without buzzing but now that I know this exists I am going to look into it further. The hardest chord im trying to play is A where I'm trying to hold down three strings next to each other at the same time. Very hard with my fingers.

Love my Zager, just wish i would have gotten the step up from what i got. wish i would have went with the natural look instead of the black.

Yeah I think a little wider fretboard is better & what I’m looking for, along with the other kinds of things you do with the fretboard also. Do you build electrics &/or customs in accordance with the vibrational sound waves generated & their strength & fervent blend points?

why not make the fretboard a tiny bit wider as well?

Is your guitar nut measure at 1" 3/4? That seems standard, any smaller I'm cramming my fingers together. Please reply,
@ZagerGuitar4 жыл бұрын
We have 2 sizes 1 11/16 and 1 3/4 but our string spacing, neck shape and taper, fret size and shape, fret board radius, lower string heights and much lower string pressures make our guitars feel quite a bit different than other guitars with similar dimensions. We've had players come from entirely different sizes who actually prefer ours once they play one.I recently posted a video about measurements on our facebook at facebook.com/zagerguitars/videos/347245432604781/ We ship the 1 3/4 as this is what the majority of our customers want but if you want the 1 11/16 just let me know when you place your order and i will make sure you get that size. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGnCiIurjJmah6s

oorr, you get better and accurate and then your insane because you can precisely choose if your e.g. ring finger is going to fret 1 or 2 strings. Basically I can play an open E chord with only my index and middle finger, without any dead string.
