How reaching is your grip (or how thin is yer neck?)
Just thought of putting it this way.
Some people prefer a real baseball bat for a neck. Others prefer a thin one. I like a thin one with a V shape so there's something to fill the hand. But I digress. It occurred to me that since the human hands are quite different, maybe there is a common denominator in that perhaps people with long fingers prefer thick necks?
Easy way to check. Just grip your guitar at the neck end and squeeze, take a pic and send here. How much do your fingers reach accross the fretboard to the other side? Is there really a difference? Is there any benefit or downside to having long fingers, at least compared to the fretboard width?
Let's have some pics and discuss to see if there's something to learn from it.
