I have someone asking me to make a guitar with a neck profile like Martin's - HD-28VS and/or a 000-28VS. I don't really know what that means. Can anyone help me out? It will be a 1 3/4" nut width. Thanks! |

Steve, Tracey @ Luthier Supplies has profile templates for all kinds of necks, have a look at his site for more detail. Cheers Kim |

If you have the instrument you can also make your own template. |

Thanks for all the help. I think I have a handle on it. I'll make the neck about .050" thicker, make it round and sand in the "V" shape (flats) afterward. Does that sound like a good approach?

Those do look like a good deal. Too bad it won't help with this one - 1 13/16 nut, 2.25 bridge, 27.5 scale length. |
