Repair [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] Guitar Neck
This instructable is about repairing the neck of a guitar. Repairing a broken musical instrument looks like a difficult task, but it can be easy enough. In this case, the neck and finger board broke off cleanly, and the following steps are how I repaired the damage.
Before you begin, make sure the guitar isn worth [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] more than a few hundred bucks. If it is an expensive instrument, have it repaired properly by a professional. If your kid dropped the guitar, that easy to know what the problem and there nothing you can do about it. On the other hand, the [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] broken neck may be a symptom of another problem.
In the case of my guitar, I found that the previous owner had strung it up with the wrong kind of strings. As you can see from the images below, the guitar was meant for nylon strings. There are structural differences between the two kinds of guitars. The differences are so great that you can feel it simply by lifting the guitar the steel string guitar weighs 2 3 times more than a classical guitar. All of that mass is due to the bracing and other measures taken to strengthen a steel string guitar so that it can resist the pull of the taut strings. When my classical was strung up with steel strings, the neck broke off cleanly. Clearly, fixing the [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] guitar won solve the problem unless I use nylon strings in the future.
Great instructable! I did the headstock one and was intrigued by what happened to yours I used white glue for my fix and would probably do just as you did on this guitar (white glue). But [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] one commenter mentioned hide glue could you tell if [عزيزي الزائر يتوجب عليك التسجيل لمشاهدة الرابط للتسجيل اضغط هنا] the original glue was hide glue or white glue? The reason I mention this is because the break on yours was extremely clean. indicating to me that the glue failed before the wood broke Which, in this case, is a very good thing!
BTW I liked your clamping set up also.
Nice fix, though I’d like to clean mine up a bit (crackled varnish), but it’s a bit too old to risk. Can’t tell from your pictures what company made your guitar?
