Project Phoenix: IV
Time to get the neck joint sorted out and think about what happened to the old one!
I’M GARY NAVA, A PROFESSIONAL LUTHIER MAKING MANDOLINS AND GUITARS BY HAND, TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS, IN MY ANALOGUE WORKSHOP. HERE ARE VARIOUS TALES FROM MY WORK BENCH.
Time to get the neck joint sorted out and think about what happened to the old one!
With the body back together, the next step is to fully bind the body and also prepare a new neck blank.
Cheers Gary
In this video the back eventually gets reunited with the rest of the body!

This is a very different project to the usual. I’m starting something (not quite true I started it in 1977!) and I‘m not 100% sure what the outcome will be. Intriguing eh?
Here’s the last episode! Both mandolins are now living happily with their new owners!
