I guess there are some negative and positive things about this gluing technique but I have to say that I've used it for many,many years without a single ever glue failure or fingerboard separation and everything all the guitars I've built to this day have never had a problem not saying that it will never happen (Pray) the only problem I can see of this failing is with the glue and nothing else. I will still use this method as its tried and trusted and until the day I have a malfunction I'll report back and post pics, guys be prepared you could have a long,long,long,long wait.
