I'm finally getting around to finishing this neck with a v-joint that's been patiently waiting for me to carve it for the last 6 months. I would love to see how others interpret this classic and elegant joint... if you've done one please post it! |

I should mention that I use a one piece neck. My apologies if you were just looking for real V joints. |

A Lacote style V head, quite long and pointy:  . . . and a Panormo type that I didn't follow too closely.

I've veneered quite a few James. Both in Ebony and Maple. When you veneer the back of a Neck it really seems to increase it's stiffness, even if it's in a veneer like Maple. |

I've been trying to get the nerve up to try one of these, but I'm not quite there yet. Get job everyone! |
