Fender Jazz Bass Neck Skunk Stripe Repair
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 окт 2023
- Here is a (somewhat) uncommon skunk stripe issue with a Fender neck. It is a failed glue joint between the skunk stripe and the main neck material. This happens if the wood has not been aged enough. The wood shrinks and a crack appears. If the glue joint was not strong enough, it will fail.

Thanks for posting this! I bought a Strat neck years ago with this issue, I knew it had the issue when I bought it so it was pretty inexpensive. "Fixed" it with a little wood glue, but years later the glue has loosened a bit. I'm going to try this method next time. I'll probably need to clean the gap out a little with an X-Acto knife first.
Surface preparation is the important first step in any glue joint.
I would not attempt to clean the gap using an X-Acto blade. You should use a feeler gauge to clean the gap.
Love these videos! The phone scares the poop out of me every time. It's good to feel alive!! Keep up the great work!
Have you had time to check out the new channel, Department of Guitars?
Great video!
Thanks for the visit. Please come again.
Well done, my friend. I have shared your videos. I think you should be seen by every guitar freak out there. Cheers!
Thank you for clicking that share button. It does help me to continue doing the work, if there’s an audience.
@@GuitarQuackery any time, my excellent friend 🙂
Great video! Cool to see how you handled the issue!
I see this issue 2 or 3 times per year on skunk striped necks. If memory serves me, now that I think about it, I believe that I once solved it with low viscosity superglue, as the gap was not eve wide enough to let me push the feeler gauge in. Basically, just because I used epoxy on this case, it doesn't mean the epoxy is always going to be the filler of choice.

Yey!
excellent video! Thank you. I was wondering if skunk stripes can be removed intact and reinstalled? I have a one piece bass neck that needs a new truss rod, and I'm deliberating about whether to try to gently pry it out, rather than rout it out. Thanks again for the great video.
Skunk stripes can definitely be removed, but in most cases I don't think we can hope the would come out intact. I guess it would have to be already completely loose, to come out without tool make and damage.
I just read a comment on another video - Score down the edge of the stripe with a sharp blade, then heat gun and pry the skunk stripe up in one piece... Wish me luck! 😬
@@sonclearbrahman-ar1461 There's an old Chinese proverb: If it sounds too easy to be true, it probably is.
But, alright... I do wish you luck.
I have this problem on my Strat. What happens if the epoxy leaks all the way down to the truss rod?
Should just put epoxy sparingly.
Great video! Never seen this done before!
Me neither. To be honest, I've seen this issue before, just a few times, but I never did the repairs, as I'm not the one that decides if repairs will be done, or not. Customers tell me when to repair.
Also, it is my philosophy to let the customers know what repair options are available, and at what costs, and let the customers decide which option(s) best fit their needs, or budgets. I only make exceptions with valuable (vintage, etc) instruments, when I might not agree to do a budget repair.
