Set-through neck (original) (raw)
Set-through neck (or Set-thru neck) is a method of joining the neck and the body of guitar (or similar stringed instrument), effectively combining bolt-on, set-in and neck-through methods. It involves: * A pocket in the instrument's body for insertion of neck, as in bolt-on method. However, the pocket is much deeper than usual one. * Long neck plank, comparable to the scale length, as in the neck-through method. * Glueing (setting) the long neck inside the deep pocket, as in the set-neck method.

dbo:abstract | Set-through neck (or Set-thru neck) is a method of joining the neck and the body of guitar (or similar stringed instrument), effectively combining bolt-on, set-in and neck-through methods. It involves: * A pocket in the instrument's body for insertion of neck, as in bolt-on method. However, the pocket is much deeper than usual one. * Long neck plank, comparable to the scale length, as in the neck-through method. * Glueing (setting) the long neck inside the deep pocket, as in the set-neck method. The result is usually told to have combined advantages of all these methods, mostly eliminating their disadvantages. Luthiers frequently cite: * improved tone and sustain (due to deep insertion and body made of single piece of wood, not laminated as in neck-through), * brighter tone (due to set joint) * comfortable access to top frets (due to lack of hard heel and bolt plate), * better wood stability. The main disadvantage is relatively complex construction that leads to higher manufacturing and servicing costs. Another cited disadvantage is the inability or relative complexity of adding a double-locking tremolo to the guitar, as the routing for cavities would interfere with deeply set neck. (en) |
