LOL don't be so bad.


scalloped necks aren't very useful unless you like bending all the way in the higher frets like Billy Sheehan. also, scalloping the entire fretboard will compromise the strength of the neck.

I don't think its recommended for bass at all. haha.. only a few frets if so, but definitely not all!!

scalloped frets may make it easier to fret notes, but you need to modulate your strength properly too... sometimes press too hard you may change the pitch of the note.
