Swapping out neck?

Hi,

I have a recently purchased a new mij jazz, I was wondering how easy it would be to swap out the neck for a fretless one?

I have a few questions related to this.

1: Is it easy to do, could I, as a beginner, do it myself, or is it something that requires lots of experience?

2: Is it something that can be done over and over again, regularly, or would that "loosen" the way it fits/holds together.

3: Do you have to use different strings on a fretless as opposed to a fretted.



Thanks in advance.
