Electric guitar construction use some dimensional principles:
SCALE
Distance between nut and bridge, string active distance
FRETBOARD
Fretboard making is difficulty so I decided to buy 10" radiused and slotted fingerboard.
NECK
Neck is made from piece of wood 100 mm x 690 mm x 25 mm. Neck is built from parts listed below:
- Neck.
- Fretboard.
- Truss rod.
- Truss rod canal infatuation.
- Tunning machines
- Frets.
- Nut)
Neck dimensions are shown on drawing below
BODY
Guitar body is made from piece of wood 350 mm x 500 mm x 45 mm. I have use three pieces of wood glued body.
NECK AND BODY JOINT
I think this is the most important guitar connection. In my design pocket was angled 1 degree by side and neck heel have the same angle. Why? I think that this connection give only one neck position. I decided to use metric screws and bushes glued in neck to easy assembly and disassemble.
