Re: Hairline Crack in Neck Help!!!

I fully agree with Frank and Lew on this one. I my self as well as a grate many professional Luthers have used CA to repair cracks and finishes of all kinds. CA is the best option for this crack repair due to it's wonderful ability to wick into the tiniest of cracks and its strength. Ya, I know. Can't even spell with spell check. Whats up with that! LOL

is CA just thin super glue?

CA or "Cyanoacrylate" is super glue. You can get it in various thickness.

You want the thin stuff.

Looks like this and sold at most hobby stores.

I suggested an epoxy wood filler to fix the crack people... the lacquer was just a suggestion to match the hue of the filler and the fretboard. I've fixed all sorts of wood damage on fretboards with good epoxy fillers before... it's not rocket science.

I did not suggest dropping lacquer into the crack.
