rjhalsey Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 I have been trying to find an article that was posted on guitarfrenzy.com called "How to Build a Neck Jig" for quite some time now. If anyone has a copy of this article or knows where I can download it please let me know. Thanks Ralph ralph@highspeedjunkie.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapbarstrat Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 You don't need plans for that thing. For example, if your pin spacing is 1/2" farther apart, or closer together, than on StewMac's, it ain't going to make your jig any less effective. But you can get it closer to the original than that, just by looking at photos, and seeing where the pins are in relation to frets on the neck above. The main thing that could cause a problem is if your beam would flex when the jig is tilted 90 degrees. That could be avoided if a 4x4 thick walled hollow rectangle aluminum tube was used for the beam instead of a narrow piece of wood like a 2x4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) Not sure if it's the same one, but it's the same fixture nonetheless. http://rapidshare.com/files/16328855/How_T...Matt_Vinson.pdf It is by Matt Vinson.

cherokee6 Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 I have a file of it on my computer in pdf format if you'd like. Check with Matt, but I don't think he'll mind if I share it with you. If it's ok, send me a PM thru the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
