Re: Neck reinforcement vs a truss rod
Back in the day, I built a few electric mandolins. The first few had reinforced necks ala Martin guitars. The rest had truss-rods. It's a very small sampling, but I never had to do neck work on the truss-rod equipped mandos. I did have to do repairs on one of the reinforced necks -- I put a truss-rod in it.
