Lightbulb alternate ways of reducing the stress on the neck?

Play a few Smith Basses and tell me if they feel like there is Stress on the Neck, please!

Not all of our Basses have the custom made graphite rods in them. Yet all of our Necks, Graphite or not share the same track record over the years as far as stability and consistency goes.

Also, not all Graphite is created equally and neither are the various methods of installing the Rods. We have 'our' way of making Necks with or without Graphite added but I will not discuss that further.
