Heritage necks

Recommended Posts

Anyone have pics of the Heritage folks in the neck making process? A lot of talk about CNC machines and outsourcing necks by quite a few small shop builders, I'd like to get educated on (and see) how Heritage does their necks.

Here's their version of a CNC router. It rough cuts the semi/hollow tops and backs before they finish shaping them by hand.

Shaping the neck. All the bits in the air are wood. He forgot to turn on the vacuum in this pic.
