Its a electromatic jet, and i got it this way. Its disassembled because it was in mediocre shape, and the poly finish was so thick and had many chips in it, that it just looked awful (and felt awful too--like i was holding a big hunk of plastic). I was pretty sure before i disassembled it that the fretboard had seperated, and was verified that when i removed the finish. My guess is that it fell somehow at one point to cause that. But the sound from this thing---i have never played another that sounded this good so i want to fix it (plus i know it should be a fairly easy fix).
I have no experience removing the fretboard. The guitar is a total redo at this point and obviously i cant re-finish it without getting this solved first. If i should remove it as described, what do i do to get it off and put it back on. Im not afraid to--well a little---but i just need some direction here as i have never done this. I have worked on my own stuff for years so im not a total noob, i just need some direction.
I wish i could get a picture up, as of the moment, that cant happen, although i can try latter too. But picture if you will the board lifting from the nut straight back, even on both sides, to about the third fret area. The rest is solidly attached as it should be.
