this is after the failure, since i have the gentle touch of a 5 pound maul, the joint failed. the neck is now leaning back 2 degrees, in stead of about 9 degrees forward... not that she's playing well again, i'm glad i didn't give it the over hand swing. ;)

This looks like my first guitar, a black and red Stella in 1959.

Now that's some action. I think the neck is spose to tilt de other way...
I have found that a straight edge (yardstick) is useful in these cases---before stringing it up!!! LOL
