gilsolomon Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hi Guys, Quick question. I noticed some of the guys here build neck in a method I have not seen before. Which is compiled of some kind of angled lamination that creates a decoration on the neck. like this amazing instrument: Can you please tell me how is it called and maybe help with a tutorial? Thanks ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 That is called a scarf joint. The angled lamination is just that, it is built into the joint. there are plenty of tutorials and threads showing this being done. Just search scarf joints.

killemall8 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Simply put, you just cut the scarf, then glue the piece you want to highlight the joint wtih, then the headstock piece. Or you can do it all at once if you can keep them from sliding around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsolomon Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Are there any rules regarding the angle ? the width of the piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitar2005 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 for the angle, its really dictated by the headstock angle but if you really want to get fancy, you could have different angles used for the sandwiched laminate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Are there any rules regarding the angle ? the width of the piece? Wide enough to make your headstock,unless you want stringers...there really aren't too many hard and fast rules 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
