Re: Jackson Soloist (USA) Construction

Could someone please explain the "scarf joint"? What is it for and why is it done? How is it done and is there a better method?

Slightly off-topic, yet still slightly on-topic, but there's a thread in the Efraid of Ebay section about Hamers on Ebay just posted. Take a look!

Holy cow!! Thanks for the tip. Those are nice to look at, but they're a bit (LOL) out of my league price-wise [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

My 1988 Archtop is made the same way, but they hid the neck joint with a slightly pigmented cherry finish. The wood on the rear my guitar is not a cap on the back as the neck through wood on the end (at the strap button) is solid with no seams from the bottom up to the binding.
