Medium Jumbo Frets on 7.5 radius?

[dogari]

the problem is on the 12th fret and up to 22nd

I want easy chords and bands.

a 12" fretboard radius would be your best option then,

i really like the 9.5 radius as a compromise. also the usacg 7.25-9.5 compound radius. very nice.

[dogari]

G&L have Compound Radius Fingerboard?
That would solve my problem.

[astutzmann]

No, they don't

Maybe you need a fender american strat deluxe!

You could always just get the 12" radius neck, I have found the effect of radius on chords to be a very minimal thing, but bends, even the 12 frets out a little earlier than I would like it to (requiring slightly higher action). The whole small radius for chords, large radius for leads is a bit decieving, classical guitars for example are dead flat, holdsword, who plays more chords than most of us can dream uses 20" radii and other flat boards.

I find where radius is most noticable to be when rolling a barre. Otherwise I couldn't care less, permitting I am not fretting out.

[dogari]

i dont like 12 on strat

The question is: if the frets 6100 help me to do bands on the 7.5
And still do chords easily.

So it does not help me?

look it up. you started back from the beginning.

Hé dogari,

Louis heeft een beetje gelijk dat dezelfde vraag al meerdere keren is beantwoord in deze post. Dus probeer ik het nu in het Nederlands. Misschien kunnen we op deze manier alle verwarring voorkomen.

Het model wat je wil is een Legacy Custom. Ten eerste, een 'Legacy Custom' bestaat niet als zodanig maar daar staat tegenover dat alle G&L's zijn in zeker opzicht 'Custom' modelen zijn waar de klant veel dingen aan zijn/haar gitaar expliciet kan specificeren. Jou grootste probleem lijkt te zijn wat voor nek met wat voor frets te kiezen. Eerst de nek. Zoals je blijkbaar weet (maar zie deze pagina) heb je hier maar 2 keuzes: 7.5" of 12". Ik weet niet of je ooit een 7.5" nek bespeelt hebt, maar je geeft zelf aan dat je geen voorstander bent van een 12" nek op een Strat. Dus ik neem aan dat je zelf je vraag beantwoord daar.

Blijft over wat voor frets te gebruiken. Een van mijn gitaren is een George Fullerton Signature, in feite een recreatie van George '54 Fender Stratocaster. Zoals je kunt lezen heeft mijn gitaar een 2a nek: 7.5" radius met een V-profiel en 6230 frets en deze frets zijn een beetje lager en smaller. Waarschijnlijk heb je ergens gelezen over het fenomeen 'fretting out' en blijkbaar jaagt je dat een zekere mate van angst aan. Nu moet je weten dat ik geen enkel probleem heb om 'bends' te doen op mijn Fullerton en nooit het fenomeen heb ervaren, zeker niet nadat ik van wat snaren betreft veranderde van 9's, welke tot ik geloof 2006 door G&L werden gebruikt op hun gitaren, naar 10's, welke tegenwoordig standaard op je gitaar zitten. Maar je moet ook beseffen dat ik niet speel als een 'shredder' of een Vai of een Satriani. Dus het hangt een beetje er vanaf wat je bedoeld met 'bending'. En als je een 'shredder' wilt worden dan is een 7.5" radius niet aan te bevelen; hoe vlakker je toets hoe makkelijker het is in het algemeen om sneller te spelen. En in dat geval zijn locking tuners onontbeerlijk. Maar wanneer je geen 'divebombs' maakt zijn gewone tuners afdoende (ook al is het een beetje makkelijker om snaren te verwisselen )

Maar er is nog steeds het feit dat vintage 6230 frets sneller slijten zoals aangegeven in een van de voorgaande posts van louis. Dit wordt verbeterd door 6100 frets te gebruiken voor welke G&L de term 'medium Jumbo' gebruikt. Ook is het niet te ontkennen dat 'bending' ook een beetje makkelijker wordt doordat de fret een beetje hoger is en je je vinger er een beetje makkelijker achter krijgt als het ware. Dat op zich is al een groot voordeel dus ik zou je sterk aanraden om Medium Jumbo te nemen. Ik heb diverse gitaren met een 7.5" neck en Medium Jumbo frets en weer heb ik geen enkel probleem met 'fretting out' maar zie mijn voorgaande waarschuwing wat betreft mijn speelstijl. En als je ze helemaal keihard wilt dan kan je het extra geld uitgeven om roestvrij stalen frets te gebruiken. Die frets gaan je leven lang mee en zijn een relatief nieuwe keuze die je hebt voor een G&L.

Wat betreft all ander faceten van je gitaar, dat is allemaal persoonlijke smaak en ivo heeft goede voorbeelden van de verschillende nek tinten. Puur natuur ziet er aanvankelijk zeer wit uit en wordt langzaam over de jaren geler. Gun Oil ziet er goudgeel uit vanaf het begin en 'Light tint' doet je nek er uitzien alsof die al een paar jaar aan het verkleuren is.

Maar op een gegeven moment moet je in het diepe springen en je keuze maken. Dat is iets waar geen van ons je mee kunnen helpen. Voor mijzelf sprekend, ik heb vele G&L met allerlei verschillende configuraties van nekken, profiel, frets, kleuren, electronica, etc. en er zit eigenlijk niet een slechte tussen. Misschien ben ik geen Pietje Precies was dat betreft maar het geeft aan dat je eigenlijk geen slechte keuze kan maken. Ik begrijp dat het voor mij hier in de VS veel makkelijker is om om te ruilen wanneer ik een verkeerde keus mocht maken maar dat neemt niet weg dat je altijd een risico neemt. Ook al is dat risico vrij laag wanneer je een G&L neemt.

Heel veel sterkte met je keuze en ik kijk er naar vooruit om het eindresultaat te zien!

that is a nice way to put it jos. to me all of those are good arguments for the medium jumbo frets. there is not a huge difference between 7.25 and 12" radius when actually playing it. they both work just fine. some people think that picking just the perfect guitar will make them a better player.

[yowhatsshakin]

To not leave anybody out of the loop, here an English translation of my previous mail (although louis doesn't seem to need it ):

Hé dogari,

Louis is somewhat correct when he claims the same question has been answered multiple times. So I'll try it in Dutch this time. Maybe we can avoid any confusion in this way.

The model you want is a Legacy Custom. First off, there is no such model like a 'Legacy Custom' but on the other hand any and all G&L are 'Custom' models where the customer can specify many features on his/her guitar. Your biggest problem seems to be what to choose for neck and frets. First the neck. As you already seem to know (but see this page) you only have 2 choices: 7.5" or 12". Ik don't know whether you ever played a 7.5" neck, but you indicate yourself you don't like 12" necks on a strat. So I'll assume you answered your own question right there.

Remains the question of what frets to use. One of my guitars is a George Fullerton Signature, in principle a recreation of George's '54 Stratocaster. As you can read, my guitar has a 2a neck: 7.5" radius with a V-profile and 6230 frets, and these frets are a little lower en smaller. Likely you read somewhere about the phenomenon of 'fretting out' and apparently that somewhat scares you. Now you should know that I have no problem at all doing bends on my Fullerton and never experienced the phenomenon, certainly not after I changed strings from 9's, which were standard on G&L's until I believe 2006, to 10's, which currently come standard on their guitars. But you have to realize too that I'm not a shredder or play like a Vai or Satriani. So it depends a bit what you mean by 'bending'. If you want to become a shredder, a 7.5" neck is not to be recommended; the flatter your board the easier it is in general to play fast. And in that case locking tuners are a must. If you don't make divebombs, standard machines are sufficient (although they make changing out string a tad easier )

But there is still the fact that vintage 6230 frets wear a little faster as indicated in one of louis' previous posts. This will be improved by selecting 6100 frets for which G&L uses the term Medium Jumbo. Also, it is not to be denied that bending is a little easier since the higher frets facilitates getting your finger behind the string as it were. This is a big advantage so I would strongly urge you to select Medium Jumbos. I have several guitars with 7.5" necks and Medium Jumbo frets and again never experienced any fretting out. But see my warning above concerning my playing style. And if you want them everlasting, spend the extra money and select stainless steel. They will last your lifetime and are a relatively new option provided by G&L.

Concerning all other aspect of your guitar, that is mainly personal taste and ivo showed some excellent examples of different neck finishes. Natural initially looks rather pale and yellows slowly over time. Gun Oil Tint looks amber from the get-go and 'Light Tint' makes your neck look like it has been discoloring for a couple of years already.

But at a certain moment you'll have to jump into the deep end and make your choice. That is something nobody here can help you with. Speaking for myself, I own many G&L in a variety of configurations: necks, profile, frets, finishes, electronics, etc. and there is not a bad one amongst them. Maybe I'm not too picky in that respect but it also indicates you hardly can make a bad choice. I understand it is much easier for me here in the US to return an instrument in case I would make a bad choice but that doesn't change the fact that you'll always take a risk. Even though that risk is fairly low when selecting a G&L.

Good luck making your choice and I'm looking forward to see the final result!

some people think that picking just the perfect guitar will make them a better player.

And after seeing 'This Might Get Loud', for somebody like Jack White that would be what many others would call a clunker. But then again, he doesn't seem to have fun when the guitar does not provide a certain 'struggle'. And then somebody like Jonsì from Sigur Rós does something completely different with his guitar, and does not seem to play it in the 'traditional' way at all. Go figure ...

Oops Just ran to the guitar to verify it with a radius gauge and indeed it is 12"! Not what I remembered! Oh well ... I updated the web page. It is the only guitar I have with vintage frets. But I have many 7.5" necks with Medium Jumbo frets that give no grieve what so ever as far as fretting out is concerned.

jos, google translate did a great job translating the dutch, got almost exactly what you posted here. this is the first time when google translate actually worked well for me. otoh, my cousin speaks dutch as she married one.

[yowhatsshakin]

Well, I have to let you in on a secret. I first typed it in English and then had Google translate it to Dutch. I hope it made any sense to the Dutchies ...

... Just kidding of course It's amazing what you can do with Googles proprietary map-reduce algorithm. At least it's my guess you'll find that somewhere under the covers of their translation software. I just looked at the Google translation and had a couple of laughs. Yes "fret" both means fret, the little piece of metal on you guitar neck, as well as ferret, the animal/sometimes pet. It picks the right one in many cases but then there is this one case where it picked the animal. But not having seen the translation before I made my own, the similarities are pretty eerie! That stuff is getting good and thanks for pointing it out.

it certainly got the bulk of it. in a few places it was off, but you could still figure out what the meaning was. i have tried it with hungarian, and it is unusable both ways.

My playing style is like hendrix ,wayne kramer, David Gilmour . jimmy page and tony iommi

So what do you think is best for me :

7.5 with stainless steel 6100 jumbo fret size 110 x .055
or
7.5 with stainless steel 6230 vintage fret size .080" x .043

Remember this is a jumbo 6100 110 x .055 not Medium Jumbo 6105 090 x .055


i want a good vintage guitar stay in tune when i play with the tremolo


dogari.

[yowhatsshakin]

As far as I know G&L does not offer 6105, only 6100 which they call Medium Jumbo (not Jumbo). So in that sense the only choice you have among the 2 you listed is 7.5 with stainless steel 6100 jumbo fret size 110 x .055 . And you'll be fine with that. A properly crowned 6100 fret is as good as a properly crowned 6105. These sort of things are minutiae that contribute little to nothing to the music, vibe, and soul produced with an instrument, which for the most part is the player. And I cannot imagine that you'll be fretting (pun intended) about the particular kind of frets while you're playing. Believe me

real jumbo is the 6000 frets. i have some of those guitars too. the difference between the 6100 and 6105 is indeed very small, but in experience i have found the 6105's to be a little shorter around .052 on average. that is before install.

[dogari]

G&L Call it Medium Jumbo but is jumbo
6000 is super jumbo
http://www.fender.com/products/search.p ... 0107112841

whatever

so you recommend me to take
7.5 with stainless steel 6100 jumbo fret size 110 x .055

Instead
7.5 with stainless steel 6230 vintage fret size .080" x .043

correct?

i don't really care what fender calls them. this is g&l, 6100 is medium jumbo, 6000 is jumbo.

you should get either the 6150 or the 6110 fretwire.

dogari, with all due respect, in these 4 pages of posts starting with your initial question you find all the information you need: what options G&L offers and which not, what certain options are named by different companies and why that is irrelevant, different likes and dislikes, pros and cons expressed by numerous participants in this thread. But enough is enough. We are not picking nor designing your guitar, you are and you alone. So reread all information provided in this thread. After that, you either shy away from it and that is fine. Nobody will hold that against you. Or you jump boy, jump ... And swim, swim, because you belief in yourself and can do it ....

- Jos

[dogari]

i know the options in g&l

I already asked the same question 100 times, no one answers

I do not have the option to check the combination understand?

i only ask what will be the best combination for my playing style

i want only 7.5 radius

7.5 with stainless steel 6100 jumbo fret size 110 x .055
or
7.5 with stainless steel 6230 vintage fret size .080" x .043

now you are lying.


here

i take:

G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960"

what you think it will be the best Choice for this radius:
medium jumbo or Vintage frets ?

depends on what you like. i like the jescar or dunlop 6100 frets. g&l calls the dunlop 6100 medium jumbo. fender calls it jumbo. vintage frets are only for people who play with a death grip, they will play out of tune with the 6100's.

dogari


i have 3 Options:

G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960" with Dunlop 6230 vintage frets

G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960" with dunlop 6100 medium jumbo

G&L Heritage Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.790" 0.910" with Dunlop 6230 vintage frets

louis cyfer

for me the second one. don't know enough about your playing style, your experience level to tell you what is best.

so what to choose

G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960" with dunlop 6100 Stainless Steel Medium Jumbo
or
G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960" with dunlop 6230 Stainless Steel vinatge fret

?

I choose: G&L Vintage "C" C 1 5/8" 7 1/2" 0.830" 0.960" with dunlop 6100 Stainless Steel Medium Jumbo

I REALLY don't think you will be disappointed with 6100 on 7.5". To me, fret wire is not one of the things to be most concerned about. I used to prefer 7.5" radius necks and have had quite a pile of G&L's with that neck, and a lot of them had 6100 wire.



Don't sweat all this little stuff, pull the trigger, man!

at this point you are either a moron or a troll.

[dogari]

You stupid or what?
All the answers here's what you prefer
The question is What would be best for my playing style

[dogari]

never mind

I have one last question about neck shape i will open new post for that
tnx for all the People that help me I appreciate it
i hope this post can help to Other people

tnx again

that is the best people can do. nobody can tell you what is best for you. you have to find out for yourself. the fact that you don't understand that, and want someone to say what is best for you (they would be talking out of their ass, which is what you seem to want), that is not gonna happen by responsible people. there is really know such thing as best, only preference anyway. you have unrealistic expectations, both with answers and obviously guitars. you will not be happy with whatever you choose. i feel sorry for the dealer you choose, as they will have a lot of misery as a result of the order.

God bless you louis cyfer Even though that you mizdyan :]

The question is What would be best for my playing style

Guys,

We have a simple rule that must be adhered to by all:

Rules: We have rules which are simple and will be enforced to maintain a positive atmosphere. Participants are expected to treat others with respect, kindness, and consideration, including G&L and other manufacturers. ...

See: READ ME FIRST: guitarsbyleo.com History and G&LDP Guidelines.

I do you both to abide by these rules and refrain from any more name calling.

Thanks for your cooperation.

I suggest that you would be better off taking any further questions to a G&L dealer.
I ask that you do not post another thread regarding this subject as I believe that those
members who posted to this thread, have provided you with details and considerations
for which you will utimately need to make the final choices.

Thank you for your cooperation.

I will also be locking this topic.
