the quack will change. you're effectively moving the pickups closer to the nut. There is a noticable difference in sound IMHO. The harmonic points are changed in relation to the pups.
A little bit, yes. But the double octave octave harmonic node stayed right over my neck pickup's pole pives when I switched to my conversion neck.Originally posted by Larry Wallwart

Actually, Warmoth offers a conversion neck with an angled headstock which has the truss rod adjustment at the headstock. I've been wanting to try a conversion neck for a while. The angled headstock just adds another variable to the mix.Plus, the USACG neck has the truss-rod adjustment nut at the headstock. Warmoth won't do that on their conversion necks.

My whole guitar is scaled down (including pick up spacing) so it's not quite the same as just bunging on a shorter scale neck (alone).
I find it easier on my old, tired hands too.
Best, Pete.
