This might be a tad controversial to all you owners of jazz boxes

Good points; the guitar has never been particularly ergonomic until the last few years anyway. However, resting on the bridge is an effective workaround to the picking problem, if one is really wanting to play that fast.
-
"We have the classic problem of playing tremolo or other fast alternate picking with precision on lower (thicker) strings"
Do we, now?

That's just some guys opinion.

This explains why guitarists playing Gibsons just never seem to be able to play fast. Got it.

Hi, M,
When I play in the lower register of my Gibson ES125TC(usually Low E), I use the top of my P90 pickup cover as a fulcrum and never need to touch the guitar body. It works for both plectrum(m/a or a) and fingerstyle playing(thumb). I hope this helps.

When playing in a surfer band, play a Fender.
Check.

I always found it more difficult to play fast on a Fender,seems like string tension is tighter even with the same gauge strings.
