jay66 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I was wondering if capping the whole back of the heal on a glue in solid body neck with a thin piece 1/8 or less of contrasting wood will be ok or will it weaken the joint? I like the way it looks on my acoustic and thought it would look cool with a piece of walnut covering the heal on the mahogany neck I'm building.

Mattia Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Go ahead, glue it in. Not gonna affect the strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay66 Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Thanks, It should look pretty cool. I would just cover the part that sticks out past the body but it would be hard to match it up and get a good fit. Way easyer to do before I glue the neck in also.
