    If you over tightened to a point of neck fracture ,then the truss rod was good enough .

    I bought one of those necks for my dad three years ago. It was a cheap Chinese made bastard exactly like the one that you showed in this video. Only I painted it surf green to match the body that I built a guitar for him. It didn't sound stellar but it works and the trussrod in it worked too. I bought stuff from China until the Corona Virus came along and now I don't buy anything from them. Either way it works my dad is happy and so am I. I said to myself when I first saw the beginning of this video to remove the fretboard which is exactly what you did. I see that you know what you're doing. Thank you for sharing this with us. Carry on!!

    I've been working at guitar teching for live bands over the past 20 years.and I can tell you with 100% accuracy that ever since smartphones were invented and it was easier than sitting down in front of a PC and I could just have my phone on my lap and my guitar and amp and my other hand and amp sitting on the table in the front of me? My playing after 30 years has jumped leaps and bounds as far as quality wise and preciseness and having a better ear for Melody.I think this reins surgeons with all the guitar kids learning to play these days cuz they're cooped up has also reignited that fire I had under my ass when I was 15 and I'm pushing 50."everything music and guitar shenanigans official channel"I leave everything up that I play the drunk stuff the good stuff the sloppy stuff the great stuff the absolutely mind-blowing to me sometimes stuff I can't believe I even pulled off but I definitely suggest giving it a check out and sort the videos from oldest to newest and watch them get better and better.

    I had previously posted a snarky remark about the mating glue bottles in the background but I thought "that's so jr. high" and deleted it ...
    I, for one, don't find truss rod videos boring, I've always wondered why and how they work and wouldn't mind a "deep dive"...
    Slightly OT: I have two necks from Goodwill salvaged guitars and the fingerboards look like nice rosewood (but what do I know) and would like to salvage those for future builds. What would be the best way to remove (intact) the fretboards? Use a heat gun to loosen the glue or bandsaw? (Of course I'd be pulling out the frets also)...

    Cool vid. I've ordered a few necks from China. The wood is really cheap, could be maple, but maybe not, really lightweight and has a plastic feel to it. Neck pocket tenons are way out of tolerance, usually too small. Tuner holes were fine, but metric spec. Surprisingly, the fret work was pretty decent. Some fret sprout, but not in need of leveling.

    Unfortunately I’ve had to buy some of these necks because of the price for an American made neck but the main problem with them are usually at the headstock because they don’t adjust from the forth fret to the nut but every once in a while (great while) you actually get a good neck and if anyone’s interested in getting one that isn’t the cheapest thing you can get but good for a good price Edenguitars has some really good stuff anyway good luck out there and thanks for the great video dude

  • @MrSDFD18

    Indonesia, Korea, China all make solid body guitars. Each line bounces between manufacturers throughout the four main countries. Squier buys from a manufacturer in China. That neck looks a lot like something you would see on a Squier bullet. Low end neck to start with, and twisted neck makes it a B stock. They show up on eBay and Amazon. Not all are structurally flawed. They’re usable with errors that didn’t pass quality control.
    I’m currently waiting for a roasted Tele neck from China. Fingers crossed it was just a cosmetic flaw that got it on eBay for $50.

    Thanks Matt! I’ve always wanted to see just that. I would like/ watch your 20 minute, low point of a guitar build class video on truss rods.
    I know this is probably a dumb question, I’ve seen you put a piece of blue tape over the truss rod before you apply the glue to glue on the fretboard, do you remove the tape before you attach the fretboard?
    I would assume you do, but then I wondered if the glue got on the truss rod would it impede it’s performance.
    Again, I always learn and am entertained by your posts.

      You are encouraged to come to any conclusions you like. I lay it out fire y'all to play it out.

      Stuart Stevens the neck had a big twist in it. It got worse the longer we had it. Truss rod won’t fix that problem.

    You have a lot of nice tools, but you are using a screwdriver instead of a chisel, or other tool. My dad would have kicked my ass, if I used a screwdriver like that. He'd always say, there is the right tool for the right job. LOL. That was interesting, I have never seen a bare truss rod in a neck like that. Thank you.

      I would never speak ill of your father. I can tell you this much... if anyone used one of my sharpened chisels for the same thing I used an old crappy flat head for I'd stomp a mud hole in their ass.

    If the neck was twisted then it was a Gibson.

      1970s Gibson LPs had plywood bodies , but they marketed them as ''pancake'' bodies to those who do not understand the meaning of 'plywood' . Gibson began boring holes in all their Les Pauls in 1983 even some custom shitshop LPs have holes .
