never seen anything like this...

wonder who the heck did all these "repairs". there appears to be work done by 3 different people. the last guy did the worst. he's the one that smeared wood glue all over the top in my last post, like jam on toast.


how's this for a neck block?



the sides and back does not match...

 


 the fingerboard was glued onto pieces of pine acting as shims because the neck angle as dictated by the the neck block would have planted the fingerboard about 10mm off the top at the far end.

 


 there's plenty of saw dust used as filler here and there.

here's the top again:



hmm... i know, it's gonna be a waste of time...


on a different note




and if you are in heavy metal...



yes, it's made of aluminum


hmmm...
