Hello, looks great! This gives me inspiration: I've never thought of making a one-piece neck with double action rod. I'll probably try this sometime.
Thanks for sharing.

The neck work on that guitar is just outstanding! I agree with you about the wood grain----but you gotta go with the customer's wishes, or no $$$.

That's one of the nicest 3-tone bursts I've seen. It's especially beautiful with that grain. At least the customer didn't ask you to paint it a solid color.

Prost!

Wow that really does look great! I have been wanting to try a double action truss rod in a solid maple neck for a while. Did you use wood glue our epoxy on that skunk stripe?

thanks for the nice comments

I've only used Titebond glue, double-acting slack is an excellent choice

Hello people

A few days ago trying to finish this guitar, when applying the final coat of clear nitro, something terrible happened
a day with humidity in the environment is not good to paint with nitrocellulose at the end of the day the guitar had all white, ruined work
I get angry the next day remove all paint and I started again
here the result









Similar to above sunburst
