Ok, I am posting this as I head out the door for work. My first CBG build is about done. I am ready to string it up. I am using some strings I had given to me. Some of the packages have numbers, one…Continue
Hi Mike, The neck is glued and screwed before the pickup on the headstock side to another piece under it, then I cut out a notch for the pickup after it's all dried up. The neck is then screwed to the box from the box's reiforced insides. The neck only touches the head and tail of the box.
hey there mike I have absolutely no doubt about the strength of this neck
this is my third six string---one is through neck and two are bolt on
my big dog accoustic is solid maple with mahogany (3/8 thick) fretboard---no problem
my arturo fuente is thru neck solid mahogany with oak (again 3/8 thick) fretboard
both necks have shown NO sign of bending
I highly recommend the use of light guage strings if you are concerned
the maple/mahogany laminated neck is strong enough to play baseball with
hippy chip
