Scalloping. Any Info would help


This has been posted so many times, I know, but I just don't feel confident enough to dig into my fret board just yet. I've read the project guitar tutorial blah blah blah. I'd like to talk to someone who did it, like on AIM or something. Post a reply and I'll PM you with my screen name. Thanks so much any one who's willing to talk to me lol

Re: Scalloping. Any Info would help


Feel free to contact me about the scalloping. I did my first neck in 1985 and have done several since. I just had a feel for the technique. When I did my first one, I took a guitar to a music store tech for a wiring job and the tech opened the case and said "Holy **** man, what happened to your neck?" because he hadn't seen one done before. He called out a couple other guys and it started an interesting conversation. One of the guys said " I think that Swedish dude has his done like this". Looking back it's kindof funny.
I just did my RG321 neck with a mild scallop. There has to be at least a dozen good sites out there describing the process. There are a couple people who can do your neck for short money, probably less than $125. You'd be better to pay one of these guys who are experienced. I'd hate to see you hack a good neck up. In my experience, other than aesthetics, it doesn't make a heck of a difference in playing.
