Just practice more standing. You should get used to it.

Strangely, I got used to it on LesPaul/SGs and similar guitars, but never on my Ibanez RG. I just couldn't get the high notes on the neck properly, no matter how much I practiced. It just didn't fit my hand.
Current BKPs: Miracle Man, Nailbomb, Juggernaut, VHII

already got one :)

I love my Jackson RR3, I can't play so well on normal shaped guitars anyway

I'm going to get an RR1 or a Ran one day
