Erick Coleman shows that the secret to a good neck joint is really knowing how to use a routing template. This is good how-to information for guitar-making templates in general.

  • @SportCourtCV yes Stew Mac

  • do you buy these templates somewhere? and do they have some for the pick up cavities too?

  • @pitrik so true

  • @Dreamdancer11 no actually it is worth it ............ i bought a 50$ router and a 10$ jigsaw and some viles and if you take your time and you are prepared to put some money in everything is possible i made a solid body stratocaster electric ukulele

    personal message me if you would like to know how i did it with only those tools

  • @tibothenr Mate this pretty much ends my journey everytime i think of making a guitar or parts of it.Apart from the knowledge you have to have.....you need tools.So unless you are going to start making lots of them....the cost of the tools for just one or two of them( even assuming that you ll make em right) isnt worth it.

  • @tibothenr Chisel. 

  • I'll buy a router to build my bass guitar, is ok to use a 1HP router ? or do I need a bigger router (2 or 3 HP)

  • Oh yea. Order a neck..  That isn't really guitar building.

  • uhm :o what ive i dont have a router ?

  • You guys hiring??
