Topic: Joe's Strats 7.25" or flattened Radius?

That 60's sunburst and Sonic Blue with the Slab fretboard in Tour De Force....I wonder if they are a stock 7.25 radius or if he had it brought down a little. I know he likes Medium High action so it's possible he is ok with it....He is so gifted...I love him so, but He also makes me feel like such a Rudimentary guitar player and I've been playing for 25 years!!

I doubt he would mod vintage guitars like that. They'd be stock for the period.

in my limited knowledge, it's very hard to find a strat that's radiused flatter than 9.5. The only ones I know of that are 12" radiused are the EJ, SRV, and deluxe player strat.

I cant stand 7.25" radius, makes me feel like I forgot how to bend a note

Although, it is ok once you get used to it. And straighten the neck. And raise the action.
