Hope that joint is strong enough. I never realized the fingerboard was as thick as it is. Or maybe I just never thought about it. ksdaddy Posted 2010-11-02 5:42 AM (#361898 - in reply to #361895) Subject: Re: Head transplant Joined: April 2003 Posts: 608 Location: Caribou, ME I won't trust a butt joint like that so I plan to rout or (somehow) cut out some of the maple center strips and 'key in' a new strip, which will strengthen it a lot. If I were a lot more talented I would have removed the fingerboard and cut both pieces at an angle, much like the typical grafted headstock found nowadays... but I just ain't that good.
