Best Electric Guitars With 9.5" Fingerboard Radius in 2026

Here are the top electric guitars with 9.5" fingerboard radius. This is the most common radius for Stratocaster guitars. It's considered curved when compared to most other models. This b>allows you to play chords very easily without muting strings accidentally and gives you more space between strings for fingerpicking/b>. However, this curve also gives the guitar less allowance for lower action. If you bend too hard at the high frets, some of your notes might get muted because the curve will make the string fret out.

After comparing the 2000+ guitars in our database, these are the best scoring ones with these characteristics. You can use our filters to the left to narrow down these results, or click on "Compare" to get a deep comparison between them. Our automated scoring system takes into account the ratings from ours users who own the guitar, and dozens of parameters to determine the build quality, playability, pickups quality, value for money, and more.

There are affiliate links on this page that may earn us a commission if you purchase after clicking. We are members of the Amazon Associates Program, and many others. However, we compare each guitar against each other under the same parameters, so this doesn't influence our scoring.
