Description
My 4 string classic necks are handmade using recycled maple and walnut scraps from a local cabinet shop. These straight necks are 35 inches long, 1 1/2 inches wide and 3/4 inch thick. This same neck is featured in my book, Handmade Music Factory. The back of the neck is rounded from the top of the neck down to the 18th fret. It also features a laminated head stock angle. This eliminates the need for screws or hardware on the head stock to maintain string tension on the nut. This neck is set up for my 25 1/2 inch or 25 inch scaled pre-fretted fret boards. It could be used with or without a fret board. Using a fret board will make the neck much stronger and eliminate the need for notching the neck for boxes with thicker lids.NOTE: The necks and fretboards I make are handmade and like any hand made item, there may be imperfections, flaws or blemishes. I use hand or power tools and a few professional grade Luthier tools. You might see imperfections. That's part of the charm and character of a home made instrument. Please understand this before you order.
These pre-built necks are a great start for building a custom handmade Instrument. They can be transformed into a playable instrument in an afternoon using simple hand tools. Be sure to check out my other items for custom fret boards and necks, combos, complete guitars or a signed copy of my DIY book, Handmade Music Factory.
