Jem7RB UK Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 My RG custom is my beater guitar,Without sounding harsh,I've re-finished it 3 times this year alone,and it's about ready for another go :-( The neck has been repaired 3 times,been through 2 trems and god knows how many differant pickups and wiring types,it's a test bed for everything i get an idea for All that abuse,and if anything it's the neck joint that is the most stable part :-) Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 You can use standard screws for the 2 screws closest to the bridge. The 2 on the headstock side of the neck are a bit shorter. If you mix up the screws they'll end up running through the fingerboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
