Building a CBG neck


Listen Later

I was scanning Facebook this morning and came upon a post about building a CBG neck with an integrated fretboard.

Here is the post (name withheld) "Question for the brains trust I normally make my necks from a piece of timber with another thin piece with pre rounded edge glued to the top as a fret board. My question is, is it really necessary our can I simply round off the single piece then cut in and fit frets."

What a great question. 

I had some thoughts about ways to do it and where you can see videos about it to help if you have the same question.

Here is Del doing what he does best.
