See below for details to correct “Pitch Back or Pitch Forward”. If sanding is
needed, a light touch and careful attention not to sand a twist into the neck.
Continue to check progress by attaching the neck and placing a straight edge
over the neck and check for “flat” across the top. As a final step, bolt the
neck on using the two long neck bolts and check the measurement at the
bridge.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Mark the top of the neck at the two sides where the
tang will be inserted. Make that mark 1/8” back on both sides. These are
“witness” marks that are guides that will keep you from sanding one side
more than the other.
DISC SANDER INSTRUCTIONS - CORRECTING NECK ANGLE
If you have a disc sander, the below instructions will provide steps to
quickly correct the neck angle. The machine setup here is critical to the
outcome and improper setup and subsequent sanding could result in an
undesirable and irreversible result.
Check and double check!
2.
Make some markings on the
face to be sanded and two marks
at the top of the neck.
3. Push the neck heel face flat on
the sander disk face (
without it
on ) and then push the mitre
gauge (loose at this point) up
against the side of the
neck....tighten the angle knob.
This will ensure you will sand
the correct angle left to right and
not sand a skew.
•
Set the angle of the table (small
increments) and sand a quick
witness mark to be sure you
sanding evenly on the neck heel
face.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to initially touch the neck to the heel surface
and check that the sanding mark is not just on one side. This will cause the
neck to sit skewed on the body of the guitar.
