I guess I'm pretty much dating myself, but my left hand/thumb is starting to get a bit painful these days when grasping the big ol' neck on my Historic R8 or TV Special. So far the fingers are fine, but my thumb joint is sore & painful to the touch at times when playing.
Has anyone else out there had this experience? I love my (4) Les Pauls, of which my '69 Custom has more of a '59 neck and is a bit easier. I have heard of others that find it more painful to play a thin, R0-style (or early 60's SG) neck, but wonder if it would help in my case?
Thin or thick neck?
