[p]The best solution is to visit some music stores & play a variety of guitars to find what works for you.

You can look up specs on the web. Ot you can look at YouTube videos.

I can tell you that most Ibanez RG series guitars with Wizard type necks are pretty wide & flat. I have one I use specifically for that purpose when I need it. But it's so wide that I have trouble playing it for most things because I have relatively small hands. :) Then, it's back to my normal Strats![br][br]But none of that is going to replace your personal experience of playing guitars until you find a neck that works for you.

Best of success!
