What I mean is I've noticed that some guitars that dont have a cut-away have a short tongue... For those of you who dont know what I mean, the "tongue" is the part of the fretboard that's on the face of the guitar... I suppose this is to make those higher registers more accesible. I'm talking strictly acoustic, becuase solid bodies usually have a a cut away or two to play with. Better players dont seem to mind their absence, though. So, I guess I'm asking is...

Do guitars without cut-aways and short tongues have less stability becuase their necks arent as "connected" tp the guitar itself? Meaning, the longer the tongue, the more stability?
