Bolt- on vs Neck-thru?
Hey Guys,
Need some input on the sound difference of a bolt-on vs neck-thru. I know wood plays a part, but all total whats the feedback. Mike |

To answer this question fairly, both basses must be made exactly the same with the exception of the neck joint. The problem with that is that on our basses, the bolt model neck has a slight pitch in the neck of 1 degree to reach the bridge height with the neck set above the body. The NT sits flush and has a 3 degree pitch to reach the same bridge height. So, even with the exact build specs (if that's your query), the tension design but angle is different between the two. Any other differences in the build and you might as well ask the guy in Tools at Home Depot. No telling what is doing exactly what! |

well..
CR means the BT shape in a Bolt-on bass as opposed to the BSR shape. MW means a 3-pc lamination of maple and walnut body wings. They both can be the same bass as in a CR5MW!
