I've been playing this beauty almost every day for a few months now, probably about 30 minute sessions on average. I started to play some today but my fretting hand was giving me some not-so-good feelings when I was playing some bar chord heavy stuff so I decided to wait... This has been happening infrequently, and I had a pretty good session yesterday, so I figure I'm probably still recovering from that.
Your comment about your fretting hand giving you problems is kinda why I was looking at strandberg in the first place. I picked up skateboarding as a Covid hobby and my 30 year old wrist didn’t like falling on it, that left me in a similar situation to you where I could get a half hour of low intensity playing before it was just too uncomfortable to keep going. They advertise their neck profile is some hyper ergonomic design, and maybe I drank the koolaid but I swear it made a huge difference. I’m finally back to normal and I still find it more comfortable to play than my traditional necked instruments.
Maybe I’ll do a lil writeup.
