[QUOTE="niccolai:126509"]neckthrus are the better of four different kinds of neck joints, it's traditionally a neck with a paddle at the end wich is used as the body and wings are glued on to either side with wood glue. Wood glue (alphetic resin concentrate) actually melts the wood on a molecular level, forming a stronger bond than the natrul wood itself if done right. you can try and smash a neck through guitar and the wood will break into pieces, but the glue line will never crack assuming the luthier did it correctly. the reason neck thrus are so great is because it allows the bridge to be on the same piece of wood as the headstock, making the entire part of the guitar that has tention one piece, wich will resonate it better and ultimately sustain longer. The neck angle is important, it directs the string tention to the headstock correctly, and the headstock should be bet back even further to keep the tention on the neck joint rather than the headstock. different bridges will have different angles, kahlers and floyds have bigger angles, while fixed bridges, like your tonepros, have less angle. fender uses straight necks and straight headstocks with bolt on bodies and the bodies are routed like a swimming pool, one of the reasons a fender will sustain for half a second while a good end schecter will sustain for 8. The archtop many people think is cosmetic, and often it is, but gives the string a look that they are higher up than the rest of the guitar and are easily accessable. I find them more comfortable than flat guitars. archtopping doesn't really effect sound though. The string through body piercings on your schecter is a bridge system made by tonepros, it's the tunamatic type that has little ferruls for the strings to guide right through the body of the guitar. it's actually better than the wrap around bridges your refering to (quad, les paul tailpiece, PRS, ect) because the string is contacting and resonating the body wood the hole time, once again adding sustain. Schecters are sustain machines, great import you have there.[/QUOTE]
