wow, this has just answered a quesiton plaguing me for a while... took ages to find this forum...

about the different sounds of a neck join, i was looking at custom-builds and making my own guitars, when i came upon ESP Custom interactive thing, it not only has Set-Neck, Bolt-On, Neck-Through, but also Set-Through

but then the site has no more information on the pros and cons, etc...

i was wondering if anyone could enlighten me as to what set-through is?

and what neck join would be recommended for a heavy, deep resonating sound, but still nice high-end (ive heard that neck-through gives good sustain but can sound 'flat')

any help much appreciated

hi I am redoing a bass that I got at a pawn shop for 40 bucks! what a deal! it is a ibanez "bean" bass it is a neck through 4 string it has the dark brown sides (wings) and the natural color center I re stained the wings as it was a little beat up

but the tape I used didnt seal very well and some very little stain leaked out onthe the neck/middle of the bass

my question is how can I get this out/off with out having to re strip the bass again thanks for any info

heres a few pictures

the first one is what it looked like before I sanded it

you can see the bleeding of the stain I would have done something diffrent but I like the looks of the stock bass

thanks
