Riversong - Glennwood Custom

The Patented Riversong Adjustable Neck-Thru System®

 Our patented Adjustable Neck-Thru System®  offers many benefits including: 

• strength
• intonation
• less bracing
• easier playing (due to the ability to make precise adjustments)
• variable top loading
• an even balanced sustain, tone & volume up and down the neck (yes even on the body), 
• no more need for an expensive neck reset
• slinky easy string tension
• reduced heel
• integrated strap pins as part of the structure of the guitar 

Riversong's unique patented Adjustable Neck-Thru System® also has a truss rod that runs the full length of the neck.  Most traditional guitars have a truss rod that ends at the 14^th fret with an elongated screw head.  Riversong necks have a full-length truss rod that adjusts the entire length. This is closer to how an electric guitar is constructed. 

The patented Adjustable Neck-Thru System® has a small amount of flex (like a Strat) and this allows regular gauge strings to feel a lot less stiff further enforcing our electric-like feel.

Our Active Body System

Riversong’s innovation is the active body system. It works by moving the neck all the way through the body allowing two things happen:

•  The structure shifts from neck joint to the end block
•  The mass of the neck is now equal in and out of the guitar and it is free to vibrate like a tuning fork helping to ring up and down the neck and throughout the body. With the structure coming from the back of the guitar, the body and the neck has a little bit of flex (think more like a Strat vs a Les Paul). This flex gives the body the ability to freely vibrate and gives the strings a really slinky feel (low tension)

Strings

D'Addario XT strings combine high carbon steel cores with an advanced corrosion resistance treatment, giving you enhanced break resistance, pitch stability, and long-lasting performance –– all while preserving the tone and feel of your favorite uncoated strings. These are strings made to stay, with uncompromising performance that never fades away.
