I emailed Michel at Seagull to confirm when the change over from bolted on necks to epoxied necks happened. He said 2006. I asked if he knew the month they changed and he said "No, as we went through the necks we had in stock, so we were using both types of necks throughout 2006."
I then asked, "How did the neck design changed to allow then to be attached by epoxy? I assume bolts are still used to hold the neck in place while the epoxy sets."
Michel replied, "Yes, we still use bolts while the glue sets. There's also an internal block. Have a look at the diagram: Seagull Features ". Scroll down the The Seagull Intergrated Set Neck.
