One other issue I had was that they clearly tried to hide the holes in the neck block that people would easily see on finished guitars by making a Wood cap that has the serial number on it. The way they went about the installation of this wood cap was to try and make it appear to be part of the neck block itself and make the neck block appear solid at a passing glance like on a dovetail joint guitar. The more you look at it though the more you realize that is just a cover to hide the neck joint construction. To me that is deliberate, I mean is it really possible they covered up the joint inside the body by accident? Personally I don't think so. Once again, Just my opinion.

My 2011 Ibanez Artwood Studio has a cover over the neck bolts. It's common practice, and yes it's to hide the bolts and provide a surface for some good identifying information about the guitar.
I'm not going to comment on the quality, tone, or general goodness of a bolt-on neck, but I am pissed off that CMG marketing explicitly denied that this was a bolt-on neck when inquiries were made. That's really not right.
