necks.

that means how many pieces of wood are used to make the neck.
a single piece neck is more prone to wrap as time goes by.
with the additional pieces, the different wood warps at different speeds... so its like to counter the warping effect.
Need a good tech or luthier to explain this...

it's not exactly true that the more wood, the less chance of warping. that can be very hard to say really. Think physics. if 2 pieces of wood warp away from each other, both give a reaction force on each other. That's the best analogy I can think of.
In theory 3 piece necks should be cheaper than a since piece. But rarely do you see a difference.
The general consensous is simply that 3 piece necks tend to warp less than a 1 piece neck. It would be extremely difficult to deduce anything more.
Like ShredCows put it, need a good tech/luthier to explain in detail.
