Here are how my adjustable action neck works on my lattice guitar builds. The design was inspired by my 2001 Greg Smallman guitar that drafted a plan of and has been the inspiration for my lattice guitars since 2004

Very cool system. Never heard of it before.
It's been in use for about 200 years, but this specific design was created by Greg Smallman and sons around 2000. I started using it in my lattice guitars around 2004.
Dave,
I assume that you can use this feature on any type guitar rather than just a lattice type guitar. True?
Thanks,
Max Bishop
Yes, you can use it on other types of guitars
Thank you very much for explaining the system. Can you also tell us something about how it influences the tone of the guitar in comparison with a classical bound neck and with a stab system?
I've tested it. No difference what so ever in the tone.
Thanks for this answer too. Cool! I was expecting some difference because of the variable contact surface between neck and fingerboard on one side and body and top on the otherside.
I played a 2a? Hauser model Schramm once, it was amazing.
Thank you.
Couldn’t you make a second hole in the fingerboard and another Allen screw for a set screw that could be fastened from the top? You would need an inset nut in your neck block.
I don't understand your question. The retaining bolt needs to move with the neck. It doesn't clamp it down.
Very cool video! Did Smallman influence the design of the similar Washburn series, by any chance? Those have a small but distinctive hole in the back just below the neck joint . . . it allows access for the Allen wrench to turn the bolt that pushes up against the strike plate which is built into the underside of the fingerboard extension. At least that's what I seem to recall. By any chance, would you think that such a system (with a bolt-on neck) could contribute to bad wolf tones on every C# of each string? Or is it more likely inside the body, loose braces and the like?
Neck not the issue for the wolf note. Try putting a ball of blue take at a 45 degree angle from the front of the bridge ends about 1-2". You can also touch that area and see if the note changes.
Don't know about the Washburn.
Just so you know; I have the speed cranked up to 1.75 X. You could hit the gas a bit. Truss-rod? Yes, no?
No, No need for one.
