Hi guys , I am doing a neck reset on a 66 000 18 and all went well , but after I had the neck off , the extension drooped and fell off , it had been cut through at some time . The dovetail seems to be a virgin so I cant see any reason for this stupid operation . Any ideas ?

Hi Len,

How do the rest of the fret slots look?  I had a guitar in for a refret a couple of months ago that had every slot up to the body cut though the board down to the neck (slots were also very wide).  I'm guessing that they eased up when the got to the body to avoid cutting into the top, but they still went much deeper than necessary.  If I had removed the fingerboard on that one I would have been left with many little rectangles of rosewood on my bench!

Hope that's not the case here, but might be worth checking out...

Thanks Jon , no the other slots are all good , I can only think an amateur was starting a reset and luckily changed his mind .
