I have used Titebond in the past and epoxy now, both work fine. I have thought of using fish as Steve suggests but have not yet tried it. Fred |

I've gone back to fish glue, after a few too visible glue lines with epoxy. Mostly perator error, I'm sure, but my results with hide glue are better, so... |

Titebond for everything except coco .. then its epoxy .. I also glue my FBs on pretty hefty neck blanks, I dont get any warping when using it as some say they do. Plus, I level/radius the FB after its glued on the neck, neck rough shaped, and bolted to the body. |

I use thick super glue for the fret board to the neck, and tightbond original for the fretboard to the body . its a ich removing a fingerboard, but it will never creep, even if left in a high temp situation ..jody |
