odlaw Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 The Kit has no name could be homemade. The neck is round. The body is is already made. My concern is the neck. I do not think it is a bolt on as it has a square rod attached to it that fits inside the guitar body. I am trying to figure out how to attach the neck. Perhaps it gets glued along the inside back wall of the body?? I just need to know how to attach and what type of glue to use. I could post pics if that helps?

stageleft Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Pics would help alot. From what you are saying that sounds like the truss rod in the neck that goes into the body, but pictures would make it much clearer. Have you tried contacting the seller for instructions? That would be the best place to look. george Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitefly SA Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 something you could try is leave all the electronics out and plug them in (wired together at this point) and if its noisy touch different solder joints, if one stops the humming, or reduces it, you need to ground that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odlaw Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 The seller didn't have instructions. I will post pics tomorrow. I am sure one of you can tell me how to attach the neck after viewing the pics. Thanks Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odlaw Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) I started a new thread in the In Progress and Finished Work section and included pics. I hope I put it in the right forum?
