Swapping (3 to 4 bolt) necks (self answered - To delete)

Post by Xochitl »

Hello,

There's an S-500 4 bolt neck been sold locally. I may want to buy it to try it in my own S-500 as it has a different fingerboard. But the latter is a 3 bolt. Is this possible or may there be width and height issues (or anaything else I should be aware of)?
