What guitar?

I want to try out a Strandberg. They seem to have cool switching options, be designed around ergonomics, and be easy to play.

I've never played a PRS. They have several that look cool. I even like the Silver Sky.

The necks will be weird for anyone who doesn't use strictly classical positioning.

I don't use strict classical positioning when playing . . . maybe 80% thumb right in the middle of the back of the neck and 20% hooking a thumb over the top. I was wondering if it the strandberg neck would force me to have better technique or be really annoying.

Certainly try one. I found it annoying, but lots of people love it.

This Performance Strat has a ‘79 Fender Ash body, a 26” scale, 20” radius, and a body shaped like a banana!
I have a second Performance, but this is a standard Alder body 22-fret, still 26” scale, and 20” radius.
Both tuned to D with 10’s.
Been playing them since 1987.

Nothing I really feel drawn to trying out there to be honest, but if a 1959 Les Paul Junior DC - either Cherry or a TV-yellow model, landed in my lap, then I’d probably cancel all appointments for the rest of the day.
