After the glue has dried, the neck is placed back on the guitar, and a line is drawn on the top of the guitar to outline where the truss rod hits the top. The top is then routed away to allow clearance for the truss rod. After this step is complete, a thin strip of wood or plastic is glued over the metal of the truss rod assembly, and then scraped down to be level with the top of the neck. This provides an even gluing surface for the fingerboard. Attaching the fingerboard is the next step. |
