It's usually two fold-

1. Many maintain that the ergonomics are way better as you move up the neck.

2. The less subjective part is fanned frets usually give you a higher tension on the bass strings, for a tighter, more focused bass response. The E string on a fanned fret guitar is tighter than on a standard acoustic.

Welcome!
The website seems to be under development still, but I saw some lovely examples on the FB page.

Hi friends,

I'd like to let you try the multiscale no fanned in order to have your feedbacks.

The meaning of having these frets is, IMO, due to the ercgonomy of the first positions chords, particularly those with barré. For me is more confortable than the classical fan fret fretbord, where you have to force the angle of your second finger by a rotation of the shoulder and of the elbow.

This is my opinion, I'd like to know your opinion on this concept and when I'll be able to send one to one member of the forum a practical feedback about the ergonomy.

Enzo
