Location: Cork, Ireland | ...to attempt a neck reset on my Applause AA-31. Its acoustic only, circa 1985, wooden neck.
So how do I get the neck off? |

As to neck removal, consult some of Dan Savage's file. I recall him removing a neck, at some point. I think Arumako used boiling H2O in plastic bags around the neck joint to soften the epoxy. Just go slowly. The adhesive eventually will give with heat and pressure. |

Location: Cork, Ireland | Thanks. I got Wilkinson P90's and really liked them. Sounds quite tele-ish which is to be expected with and ash body and bolted on maple neck. I'll check put Dan S's stuff.
