As for radical double cuts....again thats great for the more adventurous/talented among us.
I know that bolt ons are strong and if something did happen to my neck the ability to screw it off and put a new one on is going to be a relief. Neck Thru's are just necks with wings so your right if something goes wrong it's the whole guitar that's in jepordy.

I guess like people have said it's personal preference. Bolt on suits me as I never need to venture past about the 19th fret and even then 90% of playing is the 7th and below. The best way to get around is the problem is to buy both lol...
