I can't even begin to fathom what this person is up to.

Just put down the drill and slowly back way from the guitar.

Honestly! It's like....
Me: What's the goal here?
Them: I'm not sure, let's just start drilling and see where it goes.....

I can't even begin to fathom what this person is up to.

I suspect the guitar was intended to have an "American Deluxe" style neckplate.

Maybe the extra screws were added, because there wasn't a neck plate?


The center hole with no screw? I don't know what that's about. However, I did own at least one bolt/screw on neck 80's Guild that had one of those holes. Maybe a CNC thing?

 

[Nuuska]

That small hole could be neck-angle adjusting screw access.

Or even trussrod screw access as in some past guitars.

please forgive me if my first post here is a repeat!

It was in Post #287, but it's a good one that's worth repeating!

Very elegant! And good thinking adding the washer -- you don't want the finish marrred by that huge nut.

Thunderstruck??

wileypickett,
Give the person some credit for their fashion sense.
At least they matched the finish on the bolt, nut and washer to that of the machines.

Real comfy playing open chords on this one, I'm sure.

So was that a wood fire, or charcoal fire or a house fire....?? Or just played to extreme???

GGJ.,
Obviously resulted from playing too much hot jazz.

Or maybe an old Robby Krieger guitar ?

Drum stick neck break repair on Michael Schenker’s Flying V.
He said he’s broken it twice and each time it played even better after being repaired.

 

[Harp Tail]

each time it played even better after being repaired.

Wunderbar then!
