Hello everyone. So I'm having a guitar body custom made for me, and I'm going to order a warmoth short scale neck for it.I'm planning on getting an exotic wood, as the idea of not having a finish intrigues me. The problem is that I can't decide what back shape, radius and fret size to use. Although I do know I'll be ordering stainless steel frets. I started out playing a fender style bass that had what I would assume from looking at it had some kind of c shape neck. The other guitar I've had was an epiphone les Paul special 2, this had a "slimtaper D" profile. I hated that neck with the fiery passion of a thousand suns. They both had the same problems however, the neck didn't feel like there was enough in my palm, and the frets felt like they were a bit too far apart for my hands(they're somewhat small) and that I had to press pretty damn hard. (yes, the action was low, I'm not sure if having a short scale neck will fix this, and the nearest guitar center is several hours away so I can't really go try one) Anyway, based on that what would you recommend?
Thanks in advance,
