All
our necks are made from quarter sawn hand selected woods and are either mortise and tenon bolt-on type or sliding
dovetail if requested.  Necks are provided either slotted for steel string truss rods and carbon fiber inserts or
unslotted for some classical guitars. 

Blanks are on hand to produce whatever scale length, width and side taper you might need, but the
Pricing remains the same.

Multi Wood Laminated Necks

Five Ply Laminates:

If a plain neck just seems too "plain", consider adding some feature such as this tiger maple center stripe bordered with ebony, both sandwiched between split Honduran mahogany.

volute option and the Almond point heel seen here!


Honduran Mahogany Single Piece Necks

Widely aknowledged as the best all around material for guitar necks, a Honduran neck is light weight, elegant
and economical.    The mahogany grain structures are very stable due to interlaced grain structures.
Only Spanish cedar makes a lighter weight neck.
