Roland Rock Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I can't see where the 'dovetail' bit comes into the famous Fodera dovetail/set neck construction. Anyone know the details of how this joint is done? Is the dovetail part hidden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pukie Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 [i]...That's a good question the dove tail part is hidden fron the top by the fingerboard, and from the bottom by the body of the bass itself, [/i] [i]so whether it is actually "real" dove tail joint or just slotted in is hidden from view.....[/i] [i][url="http://fodera.smugmug.com/Other/Building-of-a-Fodera-Monarch/16586704_RnxPVh#!i=1249600619&k=dx5nmfs"]http://fodera.smugmug.com/Other/Building-of-a-Fodera-Monarch/16586704_RnxPVh#!i=1249600619&k=dx5nmfs[/url][/i] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 Thanks, so probably what I'd know as a 'halving' dovetail joint. Thanks. I can't see the pics of that joint in that link, but it's very interesting nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
