A little back story here:
A local music store gets items damaged in shipment and they throw them in the dumpster out back. I occasionally check it out and fix what I can.


Supervisor inspecting my work

This was a body and neck that were found on 2 different outings.
The neck was originally from a bolt on model of the guitar while the body was a set neck body.
The neck area in the body was damaged I cut out the damaged wood and glued in a blockto rebuild a neck tenon area.

Sanded and filled in the grain on the body and shot some lacquer on it.




Let it cure for about a month and wet sanded and polished the finish and reassembled it.


I found this the other night minus the head stock I've got a few spare ones from other damaged necks I should be able to graft one onto it.

Cool thread! I like seeing broken poo poo get fixed instead of thrown out.
