Best Concert Guitars With 15.75" Fingerboard Radius in 2023
Here are the top Concert style guitars with 15.75" fingerboard radius. It's a radius that makes playing single notes (and bending, vibrato, sliding, etc) easier than on a classic Les Paul guitar. However, it's still more curved than some baritone and 7+ strings guitars.
