jtmullet Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 (edited) I have a question on skunk stripes I have the basic idea where you rout the back and drill through the headstock but my question is on the walnut plugs they put in 1. how do they round the end of the skunk stripe. then how do they plug the hole on the headstockhttp://www.gruhn.com/features/tele59/EF6177h.jpg Edited October 1, 2006 by Maiden69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanb Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 The big manufacturers would of course use machinery to automatically do those jobs. In your case, do it any way you can. For the skunk stripe, mark out the radius needed and just sand it off, being very careful to get the shape right. Any inaccuracy will show up very clearly. The hole in the headstock is just that -- a round hole. Plug it with a dowel and then trim the dowel end to the profile of the headstock. Don't try to cut the shape first or it will never line up well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
