Re: dbk neck on 555? possible?


I'm not sure if the screws will be right, as far as I know the screws are longer and thinner on Korean Guitars, not sure if they'll grip the thread in the wood of a Japanese neck if its already been drilled. Don't know if the wood behind the neck is thicker on a 555 hence the longer screws. Just be aware if you do it that if things are not directly in line you risk ruining both parts. If the necks thinner on a Jap guitar you may also need to shim the neck to get the relationship to the body right.

Only my thoughts though I could be way off
