Scalloped neck...

[reidie]

Let it die...

The end?

I'm done, I know which side of the argument is correct. I'm not going to degrade myself by having any more debate with Kenneth and I have no disliking of Ptah/Horus whatsoever so I'm not going to go out of my way to piss someone off arguing something I know is correct.

I'll tell you what I'm NOT done with........this delicious bag of Cheez-its...

 

[Horus]

I'm done too.

 

[Meedleyx10]

do we...you know...hug, or something?

 

[progmetaldan]

yep...I reckon...

GROUP HUG!!1111!

 

[Eske]

Let the hugging commence!!!

 

[progmetaldan]

wow, this thread suddenly turned from a gay thread into...well...a gay thread...

 

[Eske]

That's right! The Village People now feature an extended entourage of previously masculine SX Forum members... BTW, I enjoy long walks and cuddling in front of the fireplace...

[Horus]

Sorry boys, I only hug SilentRealm, v_lizzy and CttN.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and DoomsdayZach

Agreed, save it for the pics thread or the off topic...

 

[MetalAges]

It's your condescending tone that pisses me off. Cheers. And I was referring to Julz.

I edited your post.

Let's find another way to voice differing opinions, etc. without having to attack one another folks. Thanks.

 

[progmetaldan]

No worries boss...

But how come you only edited it now, over 3 months later? We thought we'd finally buried that discussion...

^srsly

O RLY?

From Kenneth's post: "if you push a string down to the fretboard on a scalloped neck, the distance you moved it is greater."

(i.e. he was basing his argument on pressing the string down to the fretboard. To make it even more basic, he was talking about how hard the player is pressing the strings down)

From your post (which i realize isn't in question at the moment, but I'll put it here anyway because it made me laugh):

"Other than shredding, unless you're a person who's too lazy to press the string hard enough that it touches the fretboard, it doesn't make any difference "





Exactly....it's a matter of the individual...not whether or not their guitar is scalloped.




And they'll be the same ones ones bending the string 1/4 off on an unscalloped guitar.

This conversation should have been over when Eske said:

"Sorry man, you are not going into detail in explaining why a scalloped fretboard will make you play out of tune, you are, however, explaining why bad technique will make you play out of tune..."

Again, THERE IS NO REASON AT ALL THAT HAVING SCALLOPPED A FRETBOARD MAKES YOU PLAY OUT OF TUNE. The fact that a little bit of wood is missing does not contribute to you pushing the string down any further UNLESS you are pressing the strings down too hard on the fretboard of a non-scalloped guitar and playing extremely out of tune on that one as well.

I'm sure this is a dead post, but wouldn't couldn't you argue the opposite for a fretless instrument?

Man, what could have been edited...I've seen some nasty shit, including porno, on these boards that was never edited.

My apologies for not taking action. When the thread was reported to me over the weekend, I saw no new activity for over 2 months, and figured that either you or Jax may have cleaned up anything more recent. Perhaps the thread should have been locked when things started getting heated.....

Geeze and here Ive been wondering about a scalloped neck but can tell without reading back all four pages its a bad place to go. Ill just do one some day and make my own decision.

 

[progmetaldan]

haha, I played CJ Grimmark from Narnia, his Caparison Horus with a scalloped neck, so I am now an expert on everything to do with scalloped necks. Do not dare disagree with me...
