titan46 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 What is the best type of glue to attach a rosewood fretboard to a solid-body? Quote
Guitarfrenzy Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 Titebond is pretty much the standard. Quote
Mattia Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 Titebond's standard, but a lot of folks use Epoxy. Both release with heat, epoxy doesn't introduce additional moisture to the neck, which can cause it to back-bow. Honestly, I've not found that to be an issue, but I know many people who have. I stick with Titebond. Quote

Thanks for pointing out epoxy, I thought about suggesting it in my previous post, but I got to thinking, "hum, this is probably his first neck, using epoxy, might need to remove fingerboard if a mistake is made, I better just mention Titebond.. " lol I sure didn't want to be the one who had to help remove the fingerboard, so I didn't even say the word epoxy.. Mattia is right though, epoxy is a great choice but only if you know what your doing and have some experience in building first. Quote
