I think the scalloped neck fools the eye as if its higher than actually is.

Here is a picture mate I agree with Mertay. I suppose if you prefer your setup like that and you put the practice in it will become second nature to you. Although Ygnwie speed is just out of this world. Nice shot! here is another! http://www.warmoth.com/Guitar/Necks/Scalloping.aspx Also some custom scallop jobs may only scallop part of the fretboard,such as below the 12th or 14th fret, or even part of the frets such as only on the treble side. (high strings) Or even have progressively more of part of the frets scalloped as you get further down the neck. |

Here is a picture mate Oh wow. I've never seen this. Will a neck like this make notes go sharp if you fret to hard? Seems like it would. |

I think that the scalloped is making the view confusing and it seems to be higher than it really is. I remember that once Malmsteen came to Argentina an he denied to play an acoustic guitar that someone gave him in a TV show because the strings were too high. However, the answer to your question of how you can do that is "with practice"!
