If I sight down the neck on my strat, the treble side seems to have curve, however the bass side is not. It is slightly convex (just slight). The guitar plays well, no buzzes, etc. I have been using .10s. Would it help to put lighter strings on the treble side, or am I over thinking all this? Like I said, the guitar plays great, but I am anal about my Blue Clapton!
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I would try it with lighter strings. If this wont work, go to a guitarbuilder and show him the problem with your baby :)

Hi Guitarvulture
i dont`see any problem. So if your Neck got an konvex turn is charakteristic for that guitar. You have no buzz in play or other irritations. Well, play it.

I put .9, .11, .16 on the treble side and .26,.36,.46 on bass side.
My baby is perfect now.
I even put 10s on it later, and it is perfect.
I am in love again.
Thanks for all the inputs! :mrgreen:
