One of my beloved Patreon supporters recently asked me a great question: Why is it harder to play high up on the neck of the guitar? This seems like a simple question, but there's an answer NOBODY has ever talked about here, and its called RADIAL DISTORTION! And on today's episode of FAQ You, you're gonna find out all about it! In this video, we are gonna conquer the 3 things holding you back from shredding up high: Tighter string spacing, higher action, and the aforementioned radial distortion. These 3 things are holding you back, but not for long! Using my Les Paul Custom and Axe FX 3 for this video. What question for you have for the next FAQ? Let me know in the comments!
