Hey all,
Looking at my first compound radius guitar. Its a jackson 12"-16" compound neck.
I understand the principle of how it works but im struggling to visualise the string path in relation to action.
If guitar was lets say set up with a perfectly straight neck. Would the action be consistent from nut to bridge? Or would we have a higher action at the lower frets or higher? Also does it mean that you get more clearance over the following fret when playing down on the first few frets? Im rather confused!!!
