      As for using the router and jig to remove the wood above the truss rod, it could be done, but it’s a bit risky for that part. The drill and chisel give me more control in those tighter areas. Great question, though!

    You are a True Luthier. Watching your work puts me in a trance and I feel at peace. You don't cut any corners like using power drills on taking things apart. Even putting on strings no power drill. I love watching your videos and I am a huge fan of what you do. I wish I had your skills and youth. When I do a simple fret leveling and polishing the frets my hands get calist and cut and bleed. All by hand for 6 or 7 hours I am hurting and exhausted. Arm and hands are fatigued and sore. I'm 57 years old and have Arthritis. Watching you work I am jealous. You are very special and talented. My name is Gary and I am watching your TH-cam channel on my Mother's log in on TH-cam and I am not Elizabeth by the way. You make me happy to learn and watch. 😊😊😊😊😊 Stay Strong and keep up the perfect work you are doing.

I hope you at least told the owner of this instrument that refinishing might have to be performed once the fingerboard is replaced. I just want you to be compensated for the intensive labor that is always a hazard when removing a truss rod, and then modifying a replacement. I'm happy to see you have steady business in 2024.

    That little "YAY!" you let out when you got the fretboard moving up and off was delightful to hear! This was an impressive feat of work in this video and you made that bass look good as new afterwards, which makes it even more impressive. Great work, Miss Tanya!
    Той маленький "так!" Ви випускаєте, коли ви дістали дошку, що рухається вгору і вимкнено, було приємно почути! Це був вражаючий подвиг роботи у цьому відео, і ви зробили цей бас виглядати добре як нове, що робить його ще більш вражаючим. Чудова робота, міс Таня!

    As cool as neck-through-body instruments are, it's almost as if Fender had the better idea back in the day... This is a bit like watching a spinal surgery. Impressive! I can't even imagine what it would be like to have to do this kind of repair on a $10k+ Alembic. At least a Gibson Thunderbird is not an irreplaceable one-of-a-kind item.
    Like somebody else in the comments said, the Gibson is likely a much better musical instrument after the repair, than it was brandnew from the factory. Again, impressive work! You brought that bass back to life, from being basically nothing but firewood - or a boat paddle/snow shovel - before the repair.

      she did a conservative repair...the neck is the same as before she started to work on it... so she did a great job... people tend to say that gibson are better repaired for the neck problem... i think gibson did a great work on makin this neck...the work on it was great...of course the truss rod had a malfunction

    I learn so much more watching you work than hearing people talk about it. Seriously my favorite channel on here. I’ll have to get a fret shirt after I sell one of my project guitars. They are amazing. 😂

    Well, I'm half way through, and I have to go to bed. I'll tune in again tomorrow to find out what happens in the end! This is a real epic job, and you're doing fantastically so far. I love the attention to detail of putting in a whole new strip of wood just so you could route it out again! (And don't worry about the idiot scammers - you're not the only channel they "live" on. I just ignore them.)

    You are a very skilled luthier. I watch a lot of luthier video's on TH-cam and I would probably only trust 3 of them to repair my guitars. You are one of them. And my daughter would love your nails 😊

    Tanya, I don’t know what it is that makes you and your work so alluring and mesmerizing, but this particular job was unbelievable. Must’ve taken quite some time as we watched you go through 3 different nail finishes too. Wish you were in the states, I’d gladly send you guitars to help.

    I always thought a wooden hand screw type clamp (for woodworking) screwed to a plywood base would make an excellent guitar holder because of the surface area. Cool video, thank you for sharing your knowledge!

    I couldn’t help but think of my little david razer plane when you was cutting the top of the truss rod cover down, would just be the perfect tool, Worth having in the tool kit! 😊
