General feel of a 10"-16" Compound Radius?

[TBurst Std]

even if the tuners would go out of tune with just one touch of the tremolo bar. That's the "temperament" of the guitar.

That’s just a bad set up. A I cac make any 6 point trem with non locking thunders stay reasonably in tune. It’s a 1 beer job. You can do it yourself. Get Dan Erlwines book

Heavy handed. You need to lose that like a skirt. I used to be. Got over it by having an instrument that would not tolerate it.

Nothing anywhere says the strings touch the fretboard on a fretted instrument. In fact you’re not suppose to, that’s why there are frets. If you’re playing a cello, that’s different.

To help with heavy hands, try playing without your palm or thumb touching the neck. Don’t worry about speed, vibrato or anything else.
What you will learn is the amount of finger pressure required to sound the note correctly.

Once you get that feel, now bring in the thumb and palm which allows you use even less finger pressure.

It offers you a gauge to establish what’s needed. And it’s less than you think.

I am trying to undo my decades of heavy hands, these tips are GOLD!....

For many years my only guitar was a Lado Solo 1, an obscure Canadian brand from the 1970/80. Which I loved but it was heavy and largely unused so I sold it on

Not having any experience (knowledge) with different neck profiles, over time I have bought 4 Warmoth necks,

#1 was a Standard Thin​

#2 was a Wizard​

#3 was Boatneck​

#4 was Wolfgang (GAS exotic wood neck run purchase, yet to find a body)​

By far my favorite is the boatneck. The extra meat feels good in my hand whereas the wizard and standard thin are wanting in heft. I am optimistic that I will feel similarly about the Wolfgang.

As many have said before, YMMV.

I use the 10-16 compound unless a certain bridge, like the gotoh wraptail, needs something specific like 14".

There isbliterally no drawback to the compound, so why not use it?
