Anyone know how the neck is constructed on a Tangent MOB57? Is it a two piece? Are these offshore models. All info is appreciated.

Dunno about the neck, but they were made in Ko-Reah . . .

They were made in a great big mould filled with hide glue and floor sweepings and compressed by underpaid Ko-Reehans stomping barefooted till the glue dries.

I'm sure Beal is being funny, but I had a video of how a Chinese manufacturer made metal things like tack for horses and boat hooks and it was similar to what Beal described.

I don't like them but you guessed that. Some here like them a lot.The necks are just some sort of mahogony, no different than Applesauses or celibicy guitars. I don't know that for a fact but I've never heard anything different.

One of the better guitar players I know used one all the time in church. He had other Ovations before that, but I never saw them after he started using the Tangent.

The neck survived the trebuchet, the rest of the guitar did not ...
