If it's a used neck you need to fill the preexisting holes up first. I've had the holes so close before that one or two invariably will wiggle into an old hole. Instead of gambling anymore I fill all the old holes before I even start. Wooden matchstick and Elmer's glue works pretty well. Tapered Dow pins work well too. Good video! I just thought I would mention that too. I know you already know that.
Thanks so much. Very helpful. I‘ll be getting an Allparts Tele-Neck soon. So now I know what to watch out for. Very neat trick to line up the two e-Strings first for neck alignment. Hope all goes well. I like your place by the way:) peace from Germany.
Thanks for the video and I hope I can do the same I have drill press and the radias sanding block I am very concerned it wont be good and the strings will be too close to the side. Maybe it will be fine.
Great vid . How deep have you drilled the neck holes and what diameter would you use ? Asking because I‘ve got a nice Göldo neck with lacquer finish , rosewood , to put it on my '78 Tokai Strat . Don‘t want to mess it up . Thanks
Here are some of my videos related to applying and finishing over the headstock decal... ruclips.net/video/hBT8b7ID5Fo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/LazSrQBS16s/видео.html ruclips.net/video/11ti1l2J0E4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/FOsTFHOJXVQ/видео.html
Art, What I do is take the neck screw and neck plate and put the screw through the neck plate and guitar body and measure the length of the screw that is sticking out....the part that will be fastening to the neck.
Good job...! 👍 ...and nice Skull & Lightning poster 😀

Thanks Dirk, Good Luck!
Great video, I am going to use this method
Cool. Great work.
Nice video
Thanks for the help
How deep should the drill be?
what size of drill bit for fender screws and fender neck plate for the neck area before you attach the neck?

Sick looking whip!
Thanks for the video! Just a question, have you done any additional job after applying the waterslide decal? Like sanding the headstock and such..

I got a mjt body and a SRO fat 1” rosewood neck that I finished in nitro. Doing the same thing
I'd like to see how to do this without any special tools besides a driller.
Good info but I was getting dizzy with you holding the phone and recording. You should put the phone/camera on a tripod.
how do you keep the neck straight when you are drilling the neck holes?
he cradled it on the neck fret board sanding block that had the same radius as the fret board of the neck

None of that stuff is "Junk" , they are all tools for keeping Rock n Roll moving.
I'd party in your barn..
How did you determine how much depth to use on your bit for drilling into the neck? Is there a set amount for all Fender guitars and necks?

Excelente qualidade muito bom
Onde consigo comprar braços direto na AllParts ????
No site deles uai.
Skipped over the most important part
If I ever get a barn, a steal your face flag is going in it!
no... first he is going to stammer and stutter and move the camera all around so a viewer cuts it off. Skip it.
What size drill bit for the neck holes?
Most fender-style necks will be 1/8” diameter drill bits.
