Warning: I’ve played scallop fretboard for 30 years…they are extremely addicting,nothing feels or plays like it.If you develop the light touch it does make playing other guitars more difficult..IMO beginners should start with a scalloped fretboard to develop the light touch from the start!!!!… then scalloped will be the norm….as it should be.Less is Less.

I had a couple YJM Fender Strats that were my main guitars for many years. A 2004 red candy apple/rosewood board one and a 2005 sonic blue/maple board one. Great guitars and so nice to have total control of a string when bending, and friction-less vibrato also. I am not sure why more Blues players don't play them. Most people want to feel wood and press too hard when they first pick one up. Just play it like you normally would play any guitar and you will be fine. Most people who tried my guitars loved them. I used to say "just play it like a normal guitar." A few years back I ended up selling them and started going a different direction with guitars and caught the Fender Custom Shop Relic bug.

I had my Pro II Strat's neck scalloped earlier this year by Joe Stump's luthier at DC Custom Guitars, and it's honestly, without question, the coolest thing I've ever experienced on guitar. You really don't realize how much you touch the fretboard until it's not there, even with extra jumbo frets, and when it's not there, it's magical. Also, I'm not affiliated with Dean at DC, but I would highly recommend his work. My neck came back very cleanly scalloped.

I've been playing scalloped Strats for literally decades. I don't think I could ever go back to a regular Strat! I've even been scalloping quite a few of them myself. It takes a bit of time but it is totally worth the effort. I prefer the DIMarzio HS3, HS2 and YJM (now called the HS4) to the Seymour Duncan pickups.

Agree with the observations. The scalloped board feels a little odd at first, but once you get into it it’s all you want to use for solos… The pickups are unlike anything else. In a clean channel they sound very soft and vintage. But at high gain they turn into beasts.

I have one I bought a year ago with the maple neck and it blew me away just like yours did for you! I think the other challenge for me was thinking of what other music these pickups sound “like” and for and discovered they do 80’s pop really well also! The only thing I did to improve this guitar was to actually fold sandpaper and dress the brass nut and then polish it because it had some rough edges that would cause the string to bind while tuning and using the whammy bar. Also using some guitar lube on the slots helped out also! The guitar smells so good every time I open the case! That’s what I call real case candy lol!! Love your videos, man!!

I had an opportunity to buy one of these about a decade ago for a great price but, when I played it, I realized I am very left hand heavy. I couldn't play a chord in tune to save my life. Even single notes would go sharp. I thought about trying to lighten my touch but I'd already been playing 30 years so I turned it down. Great pickups (I think the one I played still had his DiMarzio set).

Yngwie has got the legendary tone! This concept inspired me to make my own signature guitar. I got a mid 90s Ibanez EX series just like when I was a kid 😂 I hydro dipped it this crazy blue and swapped out the pups for two humbuckers for overwound with bright and punchy in the bridge and smooth and mellow on the neck. I also switched to a two knob setup because the damn volume knob is always too close to the strings 🤣 Ive made that mod on a lot of my guitars. But this one I also scalloped the fretboard. I set it up with heavies and tuned it to D. It's a much wilder variation of this idea yngwie has because you've got the Floyd rose and you've got true humbuckers in the bridge.

That scalloped part makes bending has extra 'depth', not only bend the note, you still could press deeper the string thanks to the scalloped part to stress the string and achieve more, hence more pitch raise compared to bending regular fretboard where you can only bend but not pressing the strings deeper... (from what I've experienced)

Great video, playing and info on the YJM Robert! Love these guitars. I just received my 2023 YJM with scalloped rosewood fretboard this past week, 8lbs 4oz with a neck thickness of 22.74 mm measured with the strings on. Curious as to what the weight of your YJM is and the thickness of the neck at the first fret? Not the nut width but the thickness. Reason is I just sold a 2018 YJM with rosewood fretboard, 7lbs 15oz, that I bought brand new and TOTALLY regretted selling it. So I HAD to buy a new one, but the '18 was a little lighter and the neck was thinner at the first fret than the new one. Just curious. For anyone interested I had the Ritchie Blackmore first with the 7.25" neck radius. Then bought the 2018 YJM with 9.5" radius and owned both at the same time for a season. Both professionally set up by a Fender luthier with floating trems and Fender spec's action. IMHO I preferred the the YJM over the Blackmore due to the 9.5" radius ability to have lower action without fretting out and I preferred the full scallop board as opposed the Blackmore's graduated scalloped fretboard. I ended up selling the Blackmore favoring the YJM. Still favor the YJM but regret selling the Blackmore as it was just dang cool also...... Dang it.... ha ha

I'm only a relatively recent Strat convert after donkeys years on Gibson and other hunbucker guitars. When looking for a 2nd Strat I wanted something a bit different, and being a huge Purple/Rainbow fan went with a Blackmore Strat. The scalloping is asymmetrical but otherwise my findings were much like yours but I adapted quicker than I expected to. I was intrigued by the scalloping and it was the difference I was looking for and now it's pretty much my go to guitar. So cool you grabbed the Yngwie Strat, somehow I knew you wouldn't let it go after seeing the 1st vid. And awesome playing and composing.

Maybe a scalloped neck could be my saving grace. In 1988 I bought my first guitar, a black, with silver VH-style stripes and a mirror pickguard (main criteria!). It was a Hondo, Strat styled.. What I didn't realize for the 2 years I used it was that 'cuz the thing had been owned by a slide player, he'd basically lowered the frets to being not much more than fret markers. I have a grip from Hell. FFWD 5 years and at a rehearsal once, I had my lead player grab an empty pop can to show me how much pressure he applies fretting. Barely caved it in. Then I grabbed the can: Dented it. I'm primarily interested in rhythm but maybe a scalloped neck could train me??

I'm a Strat Cat who has never owned a great Strat (2 x Made in Mexico and 1 Squire). The best bang for buck guitar that I have ever owned is the Nita Strauss Ibanez Jiva 10 (£1,100, 1,300 dollars/euros). The fact that she can pick one off of the wall of a music shop wherever she is in the world and then shred it on stage speaks for itself. I find its 2 & 4 switch positions far more useful than that of my Strats. (Some people bitch about its mid single coil pickup. But if you want a single coil that sounds like a Strat then pick up your Strat!) My top of the range Richie Blackmore Made In Mexico with AlNiCo pickups has the same problem as the Ingwie Malmsteen Strat - a tendency for the high E string to slip off of the fretboard.

I had one. I loved it. Amazing for bends, which are effortless. Once you try this, you will find that the fretboard holds you back on standard guitars. The con here is making chords...forget it. You need to press with even pressure with all fingers, exactly, or the chord is out of tune. Not a big deal for metal, but clean chords, nope....especially if you need to stretch fingers to make the chord.

Poplar body I'm going to do a black/red burst on, baked maple scalloped fret neck, Fishman Fluence active single coils, standard Strat tremelo, locking tuners, 8 gauge D'Addario strings. Almost $2000 less than the cost of the Fender Yngwie Strat on retail. I played an Yngwie Strat in a music store some years ago, but it seems like every single music store puts 10's or 11's on their floor models. It was dreadful to play.

All of my guitars, strats, charvels, gibson V's, have all been scalloped since the late 80's. I really don't like guitars with a regular fretboard. It feels like the wood on a regular board requires more effort to do anything... ... plus when you sweat, scalloped fingerboards are a godsend. Grip and control for days. Back in the day people said that Yngwie did it for speed - but slightly higher strings and a scalloped board is harder to play fast.

I've scalloped two of mine, an '87 Korean FENDER...yes that's what it says on the headstock, I presume it was before the far East countries had to call them 'Squiers'. Anyway, I have also scalloped a 2005 Squier Affinity. Doing this has changed my perspective regarding attack, finger pressure, vibrato, dynamics...and so on. Scalloping changes your guitar playing because you can't apply the same pressure to the strings as you do with a normal neck, because it will go sharp. I agree with Rob in that you tend to play more aggressively, though with a lighter touch, and with more focus and finesse. When I go back to a normal fingerboard, it is like I'm a beginner all over again!

When you press the string, it will not touch the fretboard, right ? Doesn't it get the note out of tune easily if you press too hard on the string ? I'm confused.

Another great video, Robert! I've been on the fence getting one of these for years. I love the feel and I have a super light touch so this is right up my alley. I might just have to do it now. Yngwie claims with a scalloped fretboard you can, and I quote "really grab the note by the balls" and he's right!! LOL

I didn’t go for an Yngwie strat but after watching your original video I bought the pickups to put into a 40th anniversary Squier strat. Very happy with them.

I used 11s at standard tuning. I'm wondering how they'd work on something like this.

You're so spot in about vibe. It's why I can't go for any EVH -type guitar. It would just mske me wanna crank the gain and delay and such and just wank out. Nothing wrong with that, but I'm really just trying to stay true to my voice:expression, lesser than EVH it obviously is.

Hey Robert, does having scalloped fretboard make slides up and down any harder at all? Always enjoy your vids. 🤘🏻

The first time I tried one, I couldn't play it very well. The second time it was like getting the hang of riding a bicycle without the training wheels for the first time. I was going real well with it and the guy at the music store seemed to get pissed at me like "you shouldn't be playing it that well". I still prefer unscalloped fretboards but I scalloped one of my 70's reissue strats that I play often.

Is a scalloped guitar only for shreddy type stuff? What about other styles of music? That would be an interesting video topic and experiment. Enjoy your new guitar!

Warmoth sells scalloped necks. If you just want to try it without going all in that’s the way to go IMHO.

How is the string spacing on yours? Do the E strings slip off the fretboard like many people say?
