It's where the frets have actually been shaved down so instead of being normal looking and straight, they're inverted. Like if a normal guitar fret is flat or a little convex, scalloped frets are concave.

Does scalloping your guitar make you faster?

It can once you get used to playing a scalloped neck. It's kind of difficult to get used to because you have to have a really light touch. If you press slightly too hard, it throws the note you were playing out of tune. But it can indeed improve your speed. Your fingers do not touch the wood of the fretboard, so there's no friction. Kind of like floating frets. Some say that it is impossible to play chords on a scalloped neck, because they come out of tune. But the only way that would be is if you pressed too hard. And scalloped frets are not for people who press hard. Before you get it done, either try to find a guitar with a scalloped neck to try out, or try some 8 gauge strings. With strings that light, you have to develop a light touch, because if not, you can easily bend it out of tune. Hope this has helped.

Can you play an electric guitar and accostic guitar the same way?

Yes, but it is very difficult and will not sound that good. Acoustic guitars are very hard to play using electric guitar tabs. The strings are higher, tighter, and bigger which makes it difficult to string bend and slide up and down the fretboard. With uncoated strings it is torture to soft fingers. Electric guitars lack the projection and warmth of acoustics but are, in my opinion, easier to play.

What do you do in a guitar?

You pluck the strings, while pressing your fingers onto the strings, against the fretboard. Co-ordinating these movements results in the essence of the guitar: you play it.
