I've always heard people say over the years, "there's a common misconception that people think scalloped frets make it easier to play fast..."
Actually I've never heard anyone say that. But I've heard everyone refute it.
It would've been nice if Sam Ash actually carried a YJM so i can try all...

I wish this worked for me. I find myself string hopping but I don't know how to break free from it. I start overthinking it then I get discouraged and walk away from it...never ever getting better at it.

2 records from each guitarist all equally great in different ways.
