I just saw this for the first time this morning. While 3+3 is rock, not metal IMO and that stupid AF “Krab Stock” will ALWAYS be a non-negotiable deal-breaker for me… however, I find the mounting idea to be extremely clever and for the first time, can envision a bolt-on methodology I can live with.

That's pretty cool the way the neck mounts.
Half set-neck/half neck-thru properties at bolt-on ease? Seems like a clear winner to me… once they ditch that Krabcore bullshit and do these with proper Headstocks.

It's a clever variation of the '70s S.D. Curlee neck joint. More hidden but similar concept.

With the Curlee design the bridge is attached to the neck like a true neck through.
