Bolt on USA Custom shop Dinky versus my 91 MIJ RR neck thru V?

[cragginshred]

Hello, new here!
I have a 1991 MIJ RR V that has a neck thru design and it sounds huge, full and well rounded. Better than my Caparisons that cost much more.
I am looking at a pretty sweet USA Custom shop Dinky with a bolt on neck.
Will it sound as good? Similar?
Same woods and pups, likely way better Floyd.

Thanks!

Sounds like a MiJ "Pro" Rhoads
...not so sure if quality AND moneywise, a Custom Shop Dinky is a step up

I play Dinkys. They have the thinnest neck of the Jackson line plus the neck is oiled. The difference in neck profile between the RR and the DK will probably be something that you notice right away.

Will they sound exactly the same? Probably not. Will they sound alike enough that most people would not be able to tell the difference? Probably, if you use the same string gauges and pickup height on both guitars.
