The difference is obviously very small, but like most other people I notice it and prefer wider necks. I tried to get used to 1 11/16, but it just seems like less fun to play for me, it's too crowded.

But I was thinking - I suppose most people can feel the difference between string gauges, too, and that can be pretty small difference as well. They'll feel different to your picking hand, obviously (less tension the lower you go), but also to your fretting hand, I think. Seems like small differences will be noticed by most people using their hands/fingers all the time, doing the same things over and over.
