Making a 5 Piece Laminate Acoustic Neck

Today we're laminating New Zealand Kauri and Rimu to make the neck of the native timbers guitar. We're going to inlay, slot and glue the fingerboard on to it and add the veneer. We'll get the StewMac kit up to the same spot while we're at it! This series is a comparison between making a completely custom New Zealand native timbers 000 and making the Stew Mac Triple-O kit. 00:00 The Plan 02:03 Making the Neck Blank 05:48 Installing the Truss Rod 06:58 Gluing on the Veneers 08:43 Shaping the string relief holes 13:52 Fixing some chipout 16:17 Stewmac Fingerboard and Inlays 19:17 Gluing the StewMac Fingerboard on 22:32 Radiusing the Custom Fingerboard 23:35 Cutting the Fret Slots 24:40 Making the Mortise and Tenon 30:56 Gluing the Native Timbers board on 33:11 The Reveal
