This process vulcanizes the wood, making it stronger. The big advantage is that after this process, the wood becomes much less susceptible to moisture and climate changes, resulting in a more stable and predictable piece of wood.\u00a0 This is great for necks, especially, and will minimize the need for adjustments between seasons and different weather conditions.\u00a0 An extra added bonus from this process is that, while stabilizing figured maple, which is typically not so stable, it also greatly enhances the colour and figure in the wood.\u00a0 The finished product usually looks stunning and has improved tone, which is why it usually is the choice of wood for boutique and high end guitars.<\/p>\n<p>This neck is perfect as an upgrade as if you are building your own parts caster.
