I have owned a couple of radius fretboards and one i felt seemed harder to play than a flat board what does everyone think about radius and flat boards. What is your comparisons i would be keen to hear
I, literally, cannot feel any difference.
I've got two Kanile'a tenors, one with a radiused fretboard and one without, and I can't feel a bit of difference between the two.
Marston Bates (philosopher, and Margaret Mead's husband) revolutioned information theory by simply defining info as "any difference that makes a difference." That accords with my definition of reality as "whatever bites your ass." If it doesn't affect me, if it makes no difference to me, then bleh.I can feel the difference but that difference makes no difference to my indifference.
I can feel the difference but that difference makes no difference to my indifference.
I dont know if i am just weird some flat boards i find i can barre easier than some radius boards but i think it might be the width of the board that makes the difference for me. Wider radius work well for me as opposed to thin radius boards
I've played ukes with flatboards that were very easy to barre and I've played some with a radius that were easy. Radius in and of itself doesn't matter to me. It's the whole kaboodle and how it all comes together: neck shape, neck width, etc.
