My Gretsches and Fender Jag are prime examples, all have short scale necks and they all finger like hot butter. Being a new model I figured the new Ascari set neck would be set up from the factory, would play nice, etc. Wrong !!!! I was completely unable to set my new Ascari up where it would play easy even dropped down to 09-42s. I've been setting up my own guitars for 35 + years with zero problems but this one had me stumped. I finally had to send it back to G&L in HB, Cal and they did get it to play nice and easy even with 10's on it. What they did to it I do not know but now my Ascari finally plays like a dream. I especially like the sounds of it's humbuckers in the single coil mode, feel that sound is more user friendly for me anyhow. Finish, binding, body wood, hardware, etc., seems top grade, too. The only glitch was that it would not play for me, but once that problem got fixed, I'm really happy with it. Hope this helps ! If any questions, email Glenn at riverratgr@gmail.com
