Guitarfrenzy Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Can you get us a picture of the neck, it would help out alot. I'm just curious how much warp your talking about and in what areas. If it's not too bad you could heat up the neck and force it to unwarp with cauls and clamps, but you really need to research before undertaking such a task. So please post some pictures so we can get a better understanding of exactly what the necks doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Headen Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 If it doesn't have a truss rod chances are it's not worth the trouble. Unless you have woodworking stuff, you'll probably get close to the price of the guitar again for the tools you'd need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Jabsco Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I was talking to him on AIM and he got the guitar for 0.01$ and 34.99$ for shipping. So I advised him to scrap it, sell it at a pawn shop, or strip it for parts, and sell them on ebay. another day gone by, another problem solved.
