shorter scale guitars--do you notice a difference?

many of us on this forum have guitaxes besides stratocasters and perhaps have experienced what i have:

it seems like the 24-inch scale of my jag and the 24.75 inch scale of my gibbies are noticeably friendlier to my lead riff efforts than the 25.5 scale of my strats.

it stands to reason that shorter scales and the resulting shorter stretches might make a difference to someone with average-size hands.

not a diss on stratocasters, mind you, just an observation.

anyone care to share a thought? thanks, eljayski
