NeckFingerboard

Like the guitar body, most of the guitar neck has been machined at the factory; however, the neck headstock can be customized to reflect personal taste. Additional cutting, inlay, or design work can give an otherwise ordinary guitar that custom look that sets it apart from others! Note—Take your time with this sub-section and consider testing ideas in scrap wood before performing the work on the actual headstock.

To sand the guitar neck:

1.Wear an ANSI-approved respirator and safety glasses when sanding wood!

2.Perform any custom cutting, inlay, or design work to the neck headstock.

3.Using the sanding technique described in the previous sub-section, sand the entire guitar neck, EXCEPT for the fingerboard mount- ing surface. Note—Sanding the fingerboard mounting surface will affect the playability of the guitar and could lead to unrepairable damage.

The fingerboard requires no sanding. Note— Sanding the fingerboard will affect the playability of the guitar and could lead to unrepairable dam- age.

Bridge

The bridge is rough sanded at the factory. Final sand the bridge as described in the Guitar Body sub-section.
