[@jonahguitarguy]

Thanks Randy, I worked my whole life for a hat that says I'm retired.

[@Ninety2guits]

Congrats Dane!!! Can't wait to see how productive you are in your retirement.

[@jonahguitarguy]

I'll be as productive as my wife allows. Really I've already have a lot more repairs coming in.

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

Congrats on your retirement! I hope the days ahead are full of guitar building and fun with the family!!!

[@jonahguitarguy]

Thanks a lot Greg. So far so good!

Congratulations on your retirement! Great video. Looks like a really good method for routing the slots. Thanks for sharing.

[@jonahguitarguy]

I wish I had some friends I could send your videos to so they could be tortured like I was through the whole thing ;-). I loved that outro. I can honestly say I've not heard that before in any of the thousands of videos I've watched. Very clever and funny to boot..
I hope to be a luthier someday and find videos like this one quite helpful with building my knowledge base. Thanks for the video and enjoy your retirement. Keep up the good work!

[@jonahguitarguy]

Thank you for watching to the end!! I started out building electric guitars for my self and they turned out very good from the start. But I had years of wood working experience before guitars. As for repairs I found old junkers to work on to get familiar with how acoustics work.

Congrats with the retirement - hope you'll enjoy it. Regarding CF rods - I think they have their place on solid body/semi-hollow guitars, but given the short length of an acoustic neck it's probably overkill.

[@jonahguitarguy]

You are not wrong Gert. Especially on a 12 fret but I'm just trying it out.

[@KL3NCH]

Nice and precise routing. I wonder whether the CF rods give the truss rod more work to do? I'm playing catch up again Dane- it seems that UA-cam plays fast 'n' loose with me.

[@jonahguitarguy]

I know I read this this one before, thought I responded. The CF rods do give the neck a more solid feel than just the truss rod alone. It didn't seem any different to adjust. I put CF rods in the TV Yellow LPJ as well and it's very stable.

[@Vibrolas]

What kind of truss rod are you using along side the carbon rods?

[@jonahguitarguy]

Hey Hoz, both necks get double acting rods. One is a stew hotrod and the other came from Bitterroot.

[@nsjguitarsakascotsman6989]

Router sounds weird, maybe best take a look at that. As for sharing, I'm more a keep it to yourself kinda guy, a problem shared is a problem doubled and so on 🤣

[@jonahguitarguy]

Come on Neil, misery loves company. Work with me brother.
