For Mosrite what's the advantage of set neck vs. bolt on? This in terms of feel, tone, reliability and other related areas.
Thank You,

Re: Set Neck vs. Bolt On
If both are done properly, in theory it should not matter substantially.
Just my opinion.

I agree with Dan. One thought that occurs to me is given the Mosrite speed frets having the ability to shim a neck as well as adjust a truss rod might be advantageous. For Mosrite, I think i'd prefer a bolt on neck.

Re: Set Neck vs. Bolt On
Both Stratocaster and Les Paul's are very successful instruments, and both are very different, one bolt on one fixed.
I like the ability to adjust a bolt on neck, so like Sarah that is where I lean.
