  • it certainly seems strong!  i really like the sound of heavier strings, so it will be nice to have a neck that can take the tension (without leaving the hardware store). 

    do you put a separate fretboard over your necks?

  • Yep thats how I do it.As far as I know I've never had a neck fail , or bow.

    If anybody here has bought one of my pieces and had a problem with a neck I'd like to know.
