Are tight-radius fretboards a "thing" at the moment?
Hadn't clocked that but wouldn't be surprised. My Tele is 7.5" and I've long been used to 'vintage' radius but getting the action sweet without choking, esp. on the top E, is a pernicketty affair on this guit... slightly more than usual - not that I'm much of a string-bender, but the potential to get a slightly lower action would be nice. Hence fancying a go at 9.5" I suppose.
I know sometimes clever repairfolk can file a touch of compound radius into the upper reaches of a board, maybe I should look into it...

The latest video from Tom Bukovac is him and his guitar tech rambling on about compound radius and choking out. Not something I've particularly noticed, but then I've not played too many guitars. I certainly noticed the change when I got my Revstar, but that has a 13 3/4" radius board, which is very flat. Got used to it soon enough though.

Are tight-radius fretboards a "thing" at the moment? Lots of people enthusing about them all over the place.
