How to repair heavily damaged guitar neck | Guitar head broken

Here are the great example of how this kind of damage can be repaired, and how I do it frequently. It`s a pretty common case, and if there was no amateur attempts of reparation it can be easily glued back and guitar will live long and happy live ( if it dont break it again by your own fault ofc :) ). Despite popular belief after proper gluing barely nothing change withing the guitar (in case when parts fits perfectly with no missing chips). And in addition to all of that - many of guitar manufacturers that makes acoustic guitars and necks with angled headstock dont use one big chunk of wood for neck. Almost all of them are already glued from several pieces of wood in the name of stability and cheaper production process.
Beside neck repair here I show one of examples of how crack can be masked. There is a lot of ways to do it, starting from not doing with finish anything at all and finishing with full refinish of damaged part when it`s really worth it.

"Gluing the truss rod" and "Truss rod non-adjustable now" - first of all you can't do a metal+wood bond with Titebond, bc it's dont fit for this purpose. Beside that - truss rod here is in polyethylene film, and it dont really gluable at all. Second - the nut located on the other side, and look first p, in case of any further questions about gluing the truss rod.

Also we launch YT sponsorship, and already have educational content about fretworks.
Detailed description of video, tools and agents used will be a bit later on my Patreon.

This ones made me some frustraion in coment section on Shorts with this repair, so i pin them here too: 1. "Gluing the truss rod" - you can't do a metal+wood bond with Titebond, bc it's dont fit for this purpose. Beside that - truss rod here is in polyethylene film, and polyethylene, you know, dont really gluable at all. 2. "Truss rod non-adjustable now" - the nut located on the other side, and look first p, in case of any further questions about gluing the truss rod. 3. "Rubber, lol?" - in case of perfect fit of parts this is the best method bc it compresses from all sides and hold crack firmly. In case of any other clamp you get only two point of pressure, damaged wood and helluva lot of other issues 4. "SPLINES" - Nope, gluing cracks with THIS much area don`t need any splines. And doesn`t affect playability at all. It will definitely sounds bit different, but not so much as many told here and after all it plays again :)

I think it looked great just after being glued and sanded. Shows it’s history and how well it was glued. Very nice work👍🏼

The rubber tubing wrap was genius! Makes much more sense than trying to tape it or clamp it. Thank you.

I'm mesmerized with the techniques and how they work so well. At a moment you see a broken part and think "how is she gonna fix that" and a minute after it doesnt even look like it broke off.

A brilliant job Tanya. I’ve never had a broken headstock, but I reckon I could fix one after watching your vid! Keep up the awesome work. I’ll be watching more of your videos now!

Great repair. A friend of mine (former band mate) had his head stock broken off his neck (Gibson electric guitar) back in 1988 (darn kids of his). A luthier repaired his guitar quite well and he still plays that guitar today. Great work!

I do want to say, that though the repair is on point, the video is also on point. Some don't think about that, but the angles, focus, etc. It's all on point. I just did the same repair, this week. She killed it.

That's an impressive repair job! One of my greatest fears is breaking a head stock off one of my guitars but it's good to know that repair is an option. Ty for the content!

Great work, you did wonders with the front head stock. Neck repair was awesome and you have the cutest little sneeze. Keep up the great work.
