There will be a clear explanation and diagrams to make it clear. Because we try to understand what guitar neck length or size may be comfortable for you and the right size for your hand size, we will also measure your hand span or handspan. Hand span gives an idea of your expected reach, or how many frets can you comfortably cover. It is important to you avoid had pain or fatigue and work on your technique with a qualified teacher or visit a medical professional.We will compare Gibson, Fender and Paul Reed Smith PRS guitars with different scale lengths, 24 inches, 24.75 inches, 25 inches, and 25.5 inches. We will clearly show the differences and what that means in practice. We make the differences real and practical visible with diagrams and cards to compare the fret distances. Based on your hand size hand span we will give you advise or recommendations for the correct scale length for you as an individual and explain what to be aware of like problems or pitfalls. We will discuss the influence of scale length on guitar tone for longer scale lngths like fender more chimey or bell like maybe treble sounding versus for shorter scale lengths like Gibson more warm warmer or darker sounding for shorter scale lengths. String tension will also be discussed, how guitars get floppy or loose strings with little tension on shorter scale lengths while the same string gauge on a longer scale length will have a higher tension. So, a heavier gauge on short scale and lighter gauge on long scale length. Anyway all is individual and there are many other things like neck profile or shape neck depth width, fat , thin, fretboard radius that determine whether a guitar neck is a good fit for you.
