    This ones made me some frustraion in coment section on Shorts with this repair, so i pin them here too:
    1. "Gluing the truss rod" - you can't do a metal+wood bond with Titebond, bc it's dont fit for this purpose. Beside that - truss rod here is in polyethylene film, and polyethylene, you know, dont really gluable at all.
    2. "Truss rod non-adjustable now" - the nut located on the other side, and look first p, in case of any further questions about gluing the truss rod.
    3. "Rubber, lol?" - in case of perfect fit of parts this is the best method bc it compresses from all sides and hold crack firmly. In case of any other clamp you get only two point of pressure, damaged wood and helluva lot of other issues
    4. "SPLINES" - Nope, gluing cracks with THIS much area don`t need any splines. And doesn`t affect playability at all. It will definitely sounds bit different, but not so much as many told here and after all it plays again :)

      You all can get all technical on why she shouldn’t have done the repair the way she did, but you know what? How many other guitar technicians would have told her the guitar was screwed and she needed to buy a new one? She at least tackled the project and did her best to repair it to the best of her abilities. Stop getting technical on everybody. If it works it works. You’re just pissed because the girl did better Work than you would ever do

    Exactly how I would have done this repair. I’ve done many in past years including my own. This type of break is the easiest to fix but still requires great attention to the individual shards of wood at the headstock and the neck.
    Don’t let them bring you down over bench seat coaching. You did an amazing job. Each repair is a true labor of love. It’s obvious to me and others you love your work. Keep up the good fight.

    Great repair. A friend of mine (former band mate) had his head stock broken off his neck (Gibson electric guitar) back in 1988 (darn kids of his). A luthier repaired his guitar quite well and he still plays that guitar today. Great work!

    • @djijspeakerguy4628
      @djijspeakerguy4628 Год назад +2

      Gibson is known for that due to how their headstocks are attached to the neck at the factory, the relative thin shape, the wood type, and the biggest factor, the angled back headstock design you don’t see on a fender, which means a Gibson will balance directly on the headstock if it is set on the ground. Gibson could fix this, but there are snobs who thing absolutely everything effects the tone. To them, a Gibson with a scarf joint on the headstock (which changes the grain orientation) isn’t even a Gibson because it’s now “completely” different than a vintage one and can never sound the same!!
      In other words, humans are dumb. In fact, I prefer my bottom of the line Squier “Bullet” (now renamed Sonic) Telecaster over most Fender guitars I’ve played!! Only guitar I’ve liked better was a Squier Classic Vibe 70s thinline Tele, and I think it was just because of the strings!!

      Yes, Gibson is notorious, for headstock/neck breaks. It is a very weak area.
      That is why other makers have the little volute in that area.
      Always handle your Gibson carefully and Never lean it against a wall.
      Use a good, stable, guitar stand and check it for stability, before you leave the store. Keep it in a corner, if possible, and away from any traffic.
      Actually, I would do this for Any guitar, but especially a Gibson. 😁✌🖖

    Nice repair! If I may offer a suggestion, when glueing two pieces of wood together, especially on a raw break, always brush the glue into BOTH surfaces in order to ensure that best possible joint. Not doing so allows for the potential of air pockets in the glue, which as we know, is the enemy of a strong joint.

    Beautiful job. I don't know if I missed something or not, but I was curious about the glue causing problems with the truss rod. My instinct would have been to brush a bit of Vaseline onto the truss rod where the glue might come into contact. But I'm gathering your experience has told you that the glue won't stick to the metal sufficiently so it can't be freed with a good twist of the hex wrench.

    • @DugNastyMusic

      Yeah I agree the Vaseline works wonders! When I did a Gibson SG repair I put parchment wax paper in between the wood that I had clamps over and Vaseline in the truss rod cavity. The Vaseline helped and the wax paper did, too. What I did take away with what she's saying is still after this type of repair it definitely will be twisting any residue off the truss rod to set the neck relief back after the initial repair.

      I had trouble getting past the intentional slathering of glue on the truss rod. I know it supposedly won't stick, but personally I would still avoid putting it there, and would wipe off any that got on.

    Absolutely "Top Notch" repair. That is not a "High End" guitar and does not warrant making a new neck. Short of making a new neck and the cost involved your work is absolutely awesome.

    I don’t know why people bash on this girl and ask her stupid questions. She is the best guitar repair technician I’ve seen on RUclips. Excellent work girl! They’re only challenging your work because you’re female but your attention to detail is unmatched. Tanya - ignore the haters, and you don’t owe them a response

    • @zapa1pnt

    I see people asking alot of questions what material and tools she is using. Tanya actually is explaining this all along if you just turn on the annotations ( CC) on this channel. Lol I just discovered that for this channel, it makes sense now. At first I thought the videos were pretty silence. Now I know better. Thanks Tanya for your work and explanations.

    ...that's some excellent work right there! Very impressed. I worked on guitars during covid/pandemic for about two years doing setups and level/crown/polish of frets etc. Your skills are very inspiring. Some of the best I've seen. Wish you were in Austin, TX so I could bring you my guitars when needed. Keep up the great work.

      I agree. I’d rather see a few faint glue lines than lose the grain on the back of the neck. To each his own.

  • @masteroogvvay
    @masteroogvvay Год назад

    It may have been customers request but yeah I agree with comments, I loved the unpainted look. Keeps the wood grain, and the crack gives a great history/story on the guitar.

    Ahh. So long since I was so young.
    Nice work.
    One suggestion from an old luthier would be don't have too much faith in using fingers to apply sandpaper. An appropriate caul/ backing pad will nearly always give a better result.
    I liked your use of the thin card to test nut groove heights.I'll try this. Usually I will finish nut grooves with the strings on.

    I have been watching your channel for a little while now and after two or three months have learned a lot from you on RUclips. I have the StewMac soldering iron insert (fret heater) two remove frets but saw your trick using a pistol grip soldering iron with the connected heating tip cut and wow, the frets came out like butter out of the microwave, outstanding!!!
    Looking forward to more informative videos from you.
