    Hi, thanks for sharing this info. should one get the CA THIN SUPER FAST (EM 02) or CA MEDIUM (EM 150)?
  • in your experience how do these fixed guitars play after having their necks broken? is it a negligible difference or does it feel fragile?
  • @tux7300
    I have a Les Paul style guitar with the exact same damage in the same location as well, hopefully I'm able to repair it after watching this video, I lived in a bad place where people didn't respect my property and I'm in the process of repairing my old instruments.
  • @vstatealum
    I have that exact guitar given to me with a crack in the neck similar. What glue did you use again?
  • @AidenM716
    Hey man how do I fix minor splits on the siding of my fretboard, it’s a black neck and ebony fretboard
  • @DE-GEN-ART
    i wish headstcks broke at the scarf joint more often, easier to fix in my opinion. spaaks volumes about the strength of wood glue and a proper joint
  • @efio7363
    I didn't realize how serious a crack was until I changed the strings for the first time. It was a christmas gift that arrived on a delta flight in the cargo area, and I'm sure it got banged around and I really want to get it repaired

    How to identify that a guitar has just a finish crack or wood crack?
  • @rbmc1983
    I bought an used bass guitar and didn't pay enough attention. The neck was splitting on the scarf joint. It wasn't breaking, it was a clean separation (really tight gap). Do you think I can repair it with thin CA without removing the fretboard? I'm really upset because I have little money and cannot afford to send the bass to a luthier and this was a really dumb mistake of mine. I'm really sad with my stupidity. Can you please help me?
  • @jimlytleworks
    May I ask, if it were not "wicked" with water, would very thin viscosity CA glue not "wick" by itself?
  • @RandySchartiger
    that thin CA works miracles when it runs in places no other can go!
  • Would the same concept work for a baby taylor who has those dovetails ?
  • @Snaaa-bx7yx
    Ive found a semi acoustic guitar in horrible very horrible condition and im trying to fix it, problem is, the neck is all cracked the mechanism where you tune it rusty,any tips?
  • @krishverma2611
    Hello sir! I just cracked my guitar neck and the crack like yours. difference is that the side of the crack toward the body is a bit raise in comparison to the other side, the crack is a bit more toward the head and it is not that deep. I dont have anything to repair it and since there is complete lockdown in my country, i cant take to a guitar shop. Is it okay if i keep playing or should i do something so that it doesnt get worse? I have an electric Guitar. PLZ REPLY I AM REALLY WORRIED AS IT IS MY FIRST AND ONLY ELECTRIC GUITAR

  • @franklinslamo
    Ok why the water? Can you explain that please? I have an LP with a heel crack that I am thinking of doing something similar with since it is not very separated. Thanks
