Re: Daisy Rock

It all depends on what model Strat your talking about. As for me, I've always played guitars with fairly thick necks. 50's Classic Tele's, Wolfgangs, and the big daddy '74 Les Paul Standard, which has the huge neck Gibson was putting on the Deluxe models back in those days. I never had a single problem with my hand UNTIL I bought a Les Paul Classic with that thin 60's style neck. Within 3 weeks of owning that guitar, I was seriously worried about my playing future. My hand cramped when playing and was numb/tingly for hours after playing. I kept thinking I'd finally get used to it but the problems got worse very quickly. Finally, I put all of my guitars for about 2 weeks. Started back up with my old guitars and didn't experience too much discomfort. Got the LP Classic out and was right back to not being able to play. I sold that guitar 6 weeks after buying it. It took about 9 months to a year before my hand stopped bothering me. I now will only play a guitar with a thick neck and big frets. Dunlop 6100's are my friends. To me, thin necks make for great firewood.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I'm glad my first guitar was an acoustic with a thick neck, because then I could appreciate the thinner necks of my present guitars. Thick necks make my thumb ache...

I have big hands, but having that thin neck makes things seem so easier. For an example of a thin neck, play an Ibanez RG with the old Wizard neck. I love those things.

Re: Daisy Rock

I played the Rock Candy model. Sounded good, looked the part, and the fret work was great for an import, but I can't get around on that neck. I'm a big guy used to guitars with big necks, so I am a bit biased.

Re: Daisy Rock

I've played the top of the line Les Paul looking model with the set neck. Really nice fit and finish. Neck was small but not ridiculous - kind of like a 60s Gibson Slim Taper. If you like small necks (and small guitars in general) you'd like it.

Re: Daisy Rock

cool, i play a mim strat would that be considered thin by todays standards? I would assume so. My hands are not that big, so maybe the 60's neck would do less damage to me? The only time my hand ever gets tired is when im sitting down playing but when im standing up i dont find any problems.
