Examples of Set Neck Guitars

These guitars are not for sale. I shot these guitars over the course of a number of years and thought they'd be good reference material for this page. I hope you enjoy the guitars.

Shown above are four different styles of set-neck guitar neck joints. Set-Neck guitars utilize wood glue to secure the neck to the body. When done properly, set-neck guitars produce outstanding sustain and tone.
