by coincidence.. tonight i've been rummaging through my electric guitar collection comparing neck dimensions.. i've got big 'blunt instrument' fists & short thick fingers and although I can cope ok with a well set up lower action Fender style 25 1/2" scale length.
the guitars i find easier to play are 24 3/4" scale [ 1 5/8" @ nut 2" @ 12th fret 2 1/8 @ 22nd fret with flatter radius fingerboards..]
though, i've never bothered owning a 'real' Gibson..
and for some odd reason.. guitars that conform to this ideal dont all feel equally comfortable, or easy for me to play .. even though the neck thickness & shape profile seems to be the same..
Probably, just the slightest millimetre of well worn or newly sanded bevelled edge gives the advantage over a flat sharper edged fingerboard.. ..and i'm not too keen on overglossed neck finishes either..
