LUKE fretboard issue
Hello,
I’m new on this forum and happy to be part of the MM family finally!I have just purchased a 2007 Luke II. I’m experiencing a bit of “struggle” to get used to the low frets.
I really dig the neck but since all of my guitars have higher frets I’m experiencing a bit of pain to my fingers and, more than that, I don’t feel very “comfortable” while playing my solos.
Higher frets are usually easier to work with and there’s no contact between the wood and the fingers since the strings move directly between the frets.
I really like the guitar but I’d also like to understand how the other Luke owners have faced this issue.
I was thinking about changing my string gauge (from 10s to 9s) to compensate the extra work needed but I’m afraid it could not be a solution. Anyone experienced the same problem?
