metallicaforlife Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 how thin can the back of a set neck neck pocket be? Quote
WezV Posted April 27, 2011 Report Posted April 27, 2011 as thin as you need it to be. i have done then down to about 1/4" but you could even do away with it altogether and have a semi-neckthrough as long as your side joints where good and the tenon was a reasonable length Quote
RestorationAD Posted April 27, 2011 Report Posted April 27, 2011 +1 WezV I usually go about 1/4 to 5/16 in. Mine are set into the neck pickup area. I am going to cover this in the S906_3 thread shortly... Quote
metallicaforlife Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Posted April 28, 2011 Cheers P.S. This was question about the mandolin neck pocket depth Quote
metallicaforlife Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Posted May 5, 2011 is 3/8 to thin with a 2 and a half inch tenon? Quote
