I thought I would give an update on the shattered neck on my son's Epi Les
Paul. The glue job was pretty good and the neck feels solid. I'm not sure
how it would take a truss rod adjustment now and I would be very hesitant
about doing that. It needs to be sanded smooth because it is a little edgy.
It is not a bolt-on neck, so a simply neck swap isn't possible. But I think
he should be able to get a few years out of it before scrapping it
altogether.It is time to get straplocks on it and his (Mexican) Strat.
