Whoever was talking about the thinnest shreddiest necks was playing RGs. Kramers (which most people in the hair scene were *actually* playing) weren't especially thin, just thinner than the giant '59 Les Paul necks all the previous generation of guitar heroes were playing.Let's not go there lol
To give some additional context for my reason to start this thread:
I falsely assumed that the stereotypes of "80's hair metal shred guitars with the thinnest shredyest necks..." had more legitimacy behind it. But now it seems like it's more about the aesthetics than any sort of specific specs.
Things we arent mentioning: nut width and string spacing. I mean, since we’re here.
