    Hey whats the diff 'tween Harmonic n Microphonic feedback?
    Is it like HArmonic is more under control, so u can do vibrato and whammy etc on it and Microphonic is juat plain sqeal, which u cannot control.

    How were you able to distinguish? (That is something I wanted to ask in the jam room - but I forgot)

    Well

    LP is not comfy playing 21sy fret on lower E string :p: And the higher frets are too thin for my fat fingers. :cry1:

    But shorter fret length means you can do more stretched playing.


    In total, the crap about LP being difficult to play at higher frets is coming out to be more of baloney spread by Strat lovers.

    Honestly nobody has any business playing the 21st or 22nd fret on low E string on any guitar. It will be so damn muddy and unuseable. Anyway it's gonna be difficult in other guitars too because your hands have to be curling a lot leave alone the cut away thingy.

    Harmonic feedback is because of the strings vibrations catching the amps sound and resonating to it, going to the amp and so on in a contnous loop.
    Microphonic feedback is caused by the pickups moving around inside the casing because of howling leading to that unpleasant howl. Pickup potting reduces this problem but also (according to Jason Lollar) affects tone.

    A lot of vintage reissue pickups dont have potting but generally advised not to use them on high gain setups.

    Harmonic Feedback is Waaaoooooooooaaaaaaaooooooo

    Microphonic Feedback is keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    A small question (again)

    The problem with me is that I have really tiny fingers and I struggle with the normal 25.5 inch scale length 24 fretter or even the 24.75 inch 22 fretter while fretting many chords.Scales etc are pretty OK

    Im thinking of getting a 24.5 inch scale length with 24 frets made,also the width at nut would be 41 mm like the old Vintage Fender strats for my fingers to stretch right out for some chords.

    My question is would the 41mm be ok or would it be too thin ?

    41mm is supposed to be a standard nut width. U are not changing much. Better try 38mm or likes if u want narrower string spacing. Though I would advise u to stick to the norms. U n ur hands will grow, ur guitar wont ever. Now after tht 38mm nut, when u play a regular axe, ur picking is gonna suffer. Watch out for that.

    ^^Thanks for the advice Jonny,How much difference is there between 1-5/8" and 1-11/16" could someone clarify ?

    I dont think the hand ever grows after your testosterone saturates the body.
    The growth of hands is dictated by HGH (human growth hormone) which acts mostly before/during the teenage.

    Alpha Bhai,Ever played a 1-5/8" nut guitar ?

    HGH by itself is not enough. in large quantities, and in lack/low quantity of somatostatin you will grow (in height/some organs). after excercise there is boost in HGH but not enough to make you grow.

    and testosterone has no effect on hand growth. otherwise growing kids would have really small hands ;)

    @TheDevil: you like narrow or wide? 5/8 11/16 are quite narrow. maybe you can look around for guitars that have those widths and try playing them. tough to do, but could be doable

    My hands are small and I have problems fretting chords,I can fret it but it leads to overstretching and in general pain right after I stretch my fingers out .

    I tried looking for a Fender Strat Junior but to no avail ......Last option is Custom guitars............I guess 1-11/16 is in almost every guitar now,aint it ?
