Repairing a broken gibson Neck

This poor baby came in.. Pretty beaten up , looks fine here.. but when i turn it behind...

OUCH!!!!! The truss rod area also affected.. This customer uses high tension gauge , if i would just glue it back , it will come off again... so , have a few more look and see...

ouch ouch ouch...

So i decided to use 2 graphite strips across the neck to re-inforce the neck.. The process is long... and we needed some light spray as the owner does not want the neck to be refinished.. just some small area spray.

After... Tadaaaaaa!!!

after glue. before polishing.

close up view.. Can you see the damage done before??? *pooof* just like new !!

I just polished the crack part to show the work.. The rest of the neck will be polished after this. :p
enjoy !

Broken Warwick truss rod- Upgrade to a nice Biflex

I always liked that Phaat warwick rock tone.. Problem with the wicks are , the lower end models always comes with single action truss rods

This guy came in told us that the truss rod can stuff turning.. no matter how much you turn.. the action still stayed that high... A spoilt anchor or a broken rod. We'll need to open up the fretboard first to extract the rod and change it into a nice biflex truss rod..

Used a custom made steamer .. I removed the fretboard slowly...

After 1 hour of steaming, the board came up . the truss rod WAS broken in the middle... No choice.. need to change the rod..

Removed the rod , and channel a slightly deeper channel for the biflex (2 ways ) rod.. 2 way rods are better as they dont rely on the string tension to give the tensile it needs..



After glueing back...

Did abit of fret leveling...

Good as new ...
