In all honesty I think the amount of glue was fine and the clamping pressure was firm but not wood crushing @mattbeels, I don't know maybe you can tell from the squeeze out on that photo. I genuinely ...

Can't add much to what the guys above said re glue amount and clamping pressure but what works for me is leaving the fretboard slightly oversize when gluing (with centre lines on neck and board as a r...

So can the hundreds of us, currently refining our semi-hollowbody designs in anticipation of you-know-what, expect this excellent design to be adaptable to a 335 style neck tenon joint? Attachment ...

What a great idea @darrenking

so I can annoy bats with my solos. LOL

I stressed about it for a couple of days but resolved to the fact I never play those frets anyway What an odd person. I feel slightly cheated if I have fewer than 24 frets, 21 frets on a modern guita...

The fretboard is hanging over by 1-2mm on the bass side after about the 14th fret. I stressed about it for a couple of days but resolved to the fact I never play those frets anyway 🙂

Ah not too horrific, only glued the neck but the cork fell apart when I tried to wipe it away so I just left it on. There’s enough meat on the neck to remove it later Attachment : 8F0A7765-5925-4...

Squeeze out for days. Or maybe you clamped the living shit out of it? If so then don’t do that either as you’ll squeeze out too much glue causing a starved joint. Not good.

Squeeze out for days. That means you used too much glue @cheesewhisk and that’s possibly why your fretboard got off center, it was too slippery. Practice glueing up some scrap boards aiming for a ni...

@cheesewhisk It sounds like a sticky experience.

Also even though I checked, double checked, screwed holes and hammered nails, I still managed to glue it slightly offset. Another learning experience @cheesewhisk. 😁 🙏🎶...

It should be okay with cork @cheesewhisk. Did you have too much squeeze out? 🤔 At least you manage to fix it. 👍 🙂🎸🎶🙏

Listening to your posts is costing me ££ in new CDs! Thanks @Russ. 🤣😂 @tv101. I could bankrupt myself if I bought everything I liked. 🙏🎶🎸🙂

But if I catch anyone talkin’ shit about my doilies and table runners there’s gonna be hell to pay! @mattbeels Where do you get the dolls from? New York?

So, it's best to agree with him. Particularly when he starts talking about cushions and curtains. That’s very good advice @tv101! 😂😂😂 But seriously I don’t mind if people wan...
