[QUOTE="niccolai:853140"] bolt ons - the neck is bolted onto the body. this is the least expensive and quickest way to make a guitar since no glueing or neck angle need to be done. neck angling is typically done with a shim. This can be a pain for upper fret access, since the heel of the guitar needs to be bulky to bolt the neck on. set neck - the neck is glued and clamped into the body with aliphetic resin. slightly more expensive for manufacturers to use since the neck and body need to be cut, angled, and pegged for proper fit. it offers a little more neck-to-body resonance than bolt on if done properly. Although, most production line guitars with set necks aren't going to be perfectly angled and pegged. the result is gibson telling you thier set necks are better then bolt ons, even though if you cut the guitar up the middle, you would see gaps, shims, and glue everywhere. I would try and avoid set necks unless they are being hand made by a reputable builder. Also usually has the 'bulky' heel drawback. Neck through - the neck and middle of the body are the same piece of wood with wings attached on either side. this is the best for neck-to-body resonance and the hardest and most expensive to build. doesn't haveto have a heeljoint, so upper fret access is never a problem. anyone feeding you a line about sustain has been reading too much. you will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever notice a significant difference in sustain between the three neck builds assuming they are all properly built with the same quality controll and in the same market level. and if anyone replies to this calling bullshit and saying boltons don't sustain for crap and they know because so and so has a blah blah blah and it sustains wayyy better then blah blah blah I'm not going to believe you and I'm going to call you a liar. HS angle, neck angle, bridge, setup, intonation, nut, and wood choices are going to effect your sustain. neck construction makes such a small difference that you shouldn't worry about it when thinking about sustain. neck construction is mainly for resonance and comfort.
