A reasonable compromise might be to keep the lower frets almost straight and fan them more going up the neck- but you'd really need to slant the bridge. (Or use individual saddles) I limited myself to only easy to get parts for this design, so I did a more 'traditional' fan.....Eric That’s not too crazy- it would be more comfortable at the low end of the neck if the frets fanned the other way- the issue is that you get the most benefit from playing with the scale lengths by allowing the lower, thicker strings to use longer scales- and that dictates the fan.
