Pr3Va1L Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Alright, i found this on the net... should end a lot questions on these forums! Neck angle calculator and remember that you should put a *little* more angle since you can raise most bridges (or not? lol ) there =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian d Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Very,very cool. Not only can you calculate what the neck angle should be, you can play around with the parameters to see what changing each one will do to the angle before actually drawing the plan out again. I have a couple of questions though: For the fret number where the neck joins body, do you go by the join on the treble or bass side of the neck if the cutaways are different? I assume that the height of the fingerboard at neck join is measured from the top surface of the FB to the top surface of the lam/top at the level of the fret in the first question. Is that right? Should that height remain constant from there to the end of the FB? Thanks in advance, Brian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmmr Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 In conjuntion with an Inclinometer and Myka's Neck Pocket Jig i'd say this would be the best way to go about making a neck angle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
