I have never been one to lurk around any of my guitars preferring to leave this to the experts (and expense). However one thing that has always intrigued me is undoing the neck plates on strats. Quite often I have seen pictures on flea-bay where necks have been removed to show neck (and body) dates. Obviously this is to provide authenticity and all that.
However does all this undoing and doing up of the neck plate cause any problems down the line? What I was thinking is that it would loosen the "seal" and would not provide as tight a fit afterwards. I know that some of you guys put on different necks and I was thinking that at some point in the future I may do this to one of my strats but just wanted to know your views?
Let me know what if any pitfalls are likely (BTW all of my strats have maple boards and I am thinking about getting a rosewood board).
Thanks guys
