  2. Tune-o-matic Type Installation

    in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat

    Posted

    Hello all...just joined the forum.

    I have been playing for many years, mostly classic rock "My Era Stuff"

    I have two questions that hopefully some of you guys with more building knowledge can answer.

    On a Les Paul type guitar with the stop bridge / tune o matic style, i am assuming the angled neck pocket is needed due to the height the bridge is from the body.

    1. Can I use this style and route a shallow recess for the tune o matic, and not have to angle the neck?

    2. Will some one explain the theory behind the angled headstock, and options not to have to use one?

    Thanks to all very much

    Mike
