NeckFingerboard

Like the wooden rim, the banjo neck has been rough sanded at the factory. Personalize the fret- board and neck headstock with additional cutting, inlay, or design work before final sanding. Note— Take your time and consider testing your designs in scrap wood before performing the work on the actual fretboard and headstock.

To sand the banjo 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 banjo neck, EXCEPT for the frets and fretboard. Note—Sanding the fretboard and frets will affect the playability of the banjo, and could lead to unrepairable damage.

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

Bridge

The bridge has been rough sanded at the factory. Final sand the bridge as described in the Wooden Rim sub-section.
