The Aires neck is conceived as a familiar foundation refined through intention rather than excess.
Precision bolt-on neck construction, secured with machine bolts threaded into steel inserts imbedded in the neck heel, replacing conventional wood screws for improved coupling, alignment and long term durability.
It is constructed from Canadian maple and paired with a rosewood fretboard, chosen for its tactile warmth, natural compression, and controlled attack. This pairing balances clarity with musicality, remaining articulate without feeling rigid or clinical, and consistent across the register.
A dual-action truss rod is embedded within the neck, allowing both forward and backward correction for long-term structural accuracy. Adjustment is made via a spoke-wheel truss rod system, accessed at the heel of the neck just above the neck pickup. This allows fast, precise setup changes without removing hardware, supporting long-term serviceability in working and touring environments.
