Hi, all
Some of you may know that I'm shopping for my first electric axe. I've read all kinds of things on the net and at HC about the three different types of necks: bolt-on, set/glued, and through-necks (I'll ignore the "born to rock" guitar neck, as it's just too weird for me, and I'm not likely to get that axe, anyway, for budget reasons).
I'm interested in hearing about any problems/experiences people have had with a particular type of neck: warping, adjustment, servicing difficulties, spontaneous collapse, LOL, whatever...
I find myself attracted to bolt-ons just for future ease of maintenance and neck changing, but that's just the engineer in me talking :wink: However, I find some neck-through jobs jaw-droppingly beautiful (i.e. Ibanez Prestige I recently tried).
grazias...
