If the part of the fretboard that rest on the body is in line with the (curve of) the neck, there is no problem, leave it. If not, you have to loosen the screws and shim it..

I once built a Reso-Phonic myself, but I have nothing to do with this one: Sundown (If you are from the dutch speaking side of Belgium (like me), HH, you will understand the advertisement..) Cool instrument that seems interesting to me, with the adjustable tailpiece: This is mine (not for sale): Em.

Everyone talks about neck and string angle, and the consequences of under string a tailpiece. But is there anyone who knows exactly how much the ideal downward pressure is on a (National) resonator cone? Because, using this link you can calculate the downward pressure on a (resonator) guitar bridge: Downforce Seems more interesting than guessing..? Em.

I got some maple in stock, but I want to give this a chance: Wengé A bit harder and heavier, but experts know that it is primarily the color that determines the sound.. Placing of the 'mushrooms'. Fixing the biscuit bridge On the resonator cone (handspun by Mike Replogle). Search for the right intonation And find a good string height. Next: making a photo shoot and.. learn to play! Em.
