neck joint
Atlas or axis
A neck joint is the connection between the neck and body of a stringed instrument like a guitar, violin, or banjo.
The joint's construction—whether bolted, glued, or set into the body—affects the instrument's tone, sustain, and repairability.
The neck joint on that old Martin is starting to separate.
