→Fretboard Radius
One thing to note about the radius is that necks with a smaller radius and low action can be prone to fretting out (choking) on bends, particularly in the middle of the fretboard. A guitar built for shredding with low action tends to have large radius (flat fretboard).
=== Neck Size ===
Some necks have a wider fretboard (longer frets), typically those with Floyd Rose style bridges. This adds more space between each string. It can make it easier to avoid accidentally fretting or exciting a neighboring string, but on the other hand, it can make fingering chords or stretches on the thicker strings more difficult.
