joezakkwaldrianifan Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Gibson SG 61 reissue is mentioned to have 12 inch radius ( I assume it is roundness of fretboard ). But I could not find if Not in Japan made epi version has same radius? Reason I ask is that my Epi SG 61 reissue fretboard feels quite flat and I don't like it. So far every cheap noname stratocaster copies have felt better. Is it just my hand/ fingers or is Epi neck more flat than Gibson ? Thanks for your time.

Whitmore Willy Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Neck radius varies between models and thickness. Fretboard radius is, I believe, 12" on all Gibsons and Epiphones. I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately my question is that is there any Epiphone guitar with a neck profile which is similar to Stratocaster American standard ? Or possible good alternatives. Otherwise I have to rule out Epiphone for my next guitar buy. Edit: R to T... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
