This may be sacrlidge, but im thinking about (temporarily) swapping the neck from my 75 RI to the 62 RI...Im loving the Customshop pickups on the 62, but love the neck and FB on the 75..

My Q is, will the neck pocket fit..Also how will this affect the sound..the 62 being Rosewood and very trebbly.. and the 75 being maple...

Thanks..

I've swapped RI75 and 62 necks and standard necks with no problem, 4 and 3 bolt. From my limited experience I always find that maple boards need a bit more time to settle down if you tweek them, possibly something to do with the memory of the wood??? There are plenty of people who know a lot more than I do but I think it is a simple swap.
