cukaracha Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 1. you usually finish them seperately 2. suspend it by hanging it somewhere with a hook Thats all i can help you with. i don't know about the temperature thing..

brewu22 Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 I am no expert at this, and please wait for a voice with more experience to speak up, but. I have always seen a set neck guitar neck glued into place before finishing. If you did them separately, too much of a chance of getting finish where the glue joint will be, plus gluing and clamping on a fresh finish doesn't sound like a good idea to me. As for front and back at the same time, depends on what you are doing, paint, stain, a burst, or clear coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maiden69 Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Set neck together, bolt on doesn't matter. Depends on how you set up, you can do front and back at the same time or separate I have sprayed with cans when it was about 25 degrees outside, but I was in a small shack with my dual 500w lamps hitting the guitar. But just follow the recomendations of the paint you are using to be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
