Hi,
do you, who have played short and normal scale double cut models, notice any difference in the ergonomics of the guitar? In other words, does the guitar sit on your lap differently, are right and left hand position different etc.?
I used to have McCarty (25") and ZM SE (24,5" but it's a single cut, semi-hollow) and the ergonomics of the ZM was superior (to me): the fretting hand liked it a lot (because I have short fingers) and the body ergonomics was better because my right hand was naturally resting in perfect position. With McCarty, I have to keep my arm in particular way that my palm is where I want it to be. This means that there is a constant tension in right shoulder etc. Nothing major, I can definitely live with normal McCarty and it's features.
I am still thinking if e.g. McCarty with 24.5" scale would be the answer? Is the bridge located differently in normal vs 24.5" McCarty or is the only difference the length of the neck?
Thanks in advance.
