Members honeyiscool Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 You know, the guitar that for some whatever reason makes you play faster and hopefully better? Mine's probably my Daisy Rock Retro-H. I think the combination of the 24.75" scale with the tiny neck and flatter radius helps it fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Floyd Rosenbomb Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 1987 Ibanez RG550, just works for my hands. The whole guitar is light weight, it's just really easy for me to play on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members paulojcduarte Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 Ibanez Jem, but I'm getting slower and slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xrleroyx Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 An Airline archtop that needs a neck reset. Not being sarcastic, I modified the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 My PRS SE Custom 24 plays very fast. I like the scale, neck, fretboard width, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members axegrinder Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 It's probably a toss up between my Brawley or cheap-ass ESP LTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members benzem Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 I Don't have one really. But my 2 Artists, a '76 2618(double cut LP style) and my AS200 Semihollow play as easy as you can get. But, I'm just as fast (or slow) on my dlx strat and my LP's.

Members BydoEmpire Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 I'm not sure I play significantly faster on one guitar than another. Most days I'd say my Suhr Set Neck Modern. Perfect sized neck (size, shape, FB radius and nut width) and jumbo stainless frets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members billybilly Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 My 25" scale Stainless Steel medium fret partscaster. Combined with elixir nanowebs, it flys. Now, if I could only keep up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bluesnapper Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 How fast I can play depends entirely on how much I've been practicing recently, not the guitar. All my guitars are strung with the same gauge and have the same fingerboard radius - the only difference is Gibson/Fender scale lengths - this doesn't affect speed, just bending, vibrato and chords.

Members guitarman3001 Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 One time I had my epi LP strapped to the back of my motorcycle and hit about 120 on the expressway so I'm pretty sure it's that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bro Blue Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 LTD EC1000. Both the Ibbys are fast, but the LTD is just right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeanoBoy Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 My '91 PRS Artist plays the fastest. It has a slim, easy to play neck. Not to break your chops, but playing faster doesn't always = playing better. I prefer chubby necks these days as I try to keep the fast stuff in check and try to dig in more these days. To each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members richey888 Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 Gotta be the Melody Maker.....chunky C neck stellar frets ( I know small and large, these lean towards large), but comfy as hell....I haul ass on 'er Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoeBoy Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 My 1989 Made for Export I Serial # Fender Strat. I think you bought one HIC. These were MIA and some how dissapeared. Mine is dead stock and it is my number one. It no longer leaves my studio. Nothing real special, but kills in tone and playability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Burgess Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 I've got about a dozen that I can all play equally fast on, though I've never actually measured it or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
