I have repaired several solid top Yamaha guitars from the 70s and 80s for my students. You perfectly described the frustrating neck joints. As always, THANK YOU for sharing Professional experience and insight! However, the acoustic quality and balance of the Yamaha tone wood top construction, and true temperament intonation throughout the fret scale, share the precision, acoustic quality and dynamic range with our vintage Gibson B- series, 1952 Guild F- 20 and Martin guitars. Kind Sir, you are correct that older Yamaha guitars are not worth much as "collector value", but when they are good, they are very, Very Good. When an old Yamaha is donated to our school, I rejoice, because it is Worth Repairing, and will last...knowing that the neck block will be misery if I have to take it apart (huge smile).

After a failed re glueing of the bridge that was made by a guitar shop i decided to fix it by myself the dirty way screwing the bridge down with 3 screws against a stripe of tin inside the guitar. That was almost 40 years ago. But after some time the whole soundboard bended and it was no more playable. Now 2 days ago after collecting dust for decades I attached an self copied bridge doctor. And she is still in tune.(almost). And . That sound shot me on a journey into the good times of my youth. I really love it. Thank you very much.

Glad it didn't take too much to get the guitar playing again. Though not necessary in this case, I was wondering about an alternative to a Traditional Neck reset, particularly on tricky/complicated heel joints. Why not simply remove the fingerboard, and shim (a long thin wedge) underneath it so a correct string angle can be achieved at the bridge? Obviously, some cleanup and leveling of the neck might be necessary/useful. A correction for any underbow could be made on the neck when gluing back the fingerboard, if it was clamped accordingly.

This is an older video I know but I am commenting on the steam neck reset. I have an old 72 Fg 160 nippon gakki Yamaha I bought a few years back it sounds fantastic, very loud and cuts through all other acoustics ive heard even 3000 euro martins and Taylor's maybe not as refined but great in sessions, its just louder than all of them. I get looks from people with my cheap old battered Yamaha. I watched the Australian Luthier who i learned it off, I forget his name. My Yamaha needed a neck reset but was not willing to attempt myself or pay 300 or more. I really got a great result, I clamped down the neck and steamed it every 4 or 5 days for 4 weeks. It hasn't really sprung back either. I got the action down to 2.5 mm at the 12th which is reasonable compared to 4 now before this I had already sanded the saddle down to a minimum and some off the bridge The only thing is to not steam it too much in the one go just for maybe 30 secs at a time until the area of the soundboard around the area where fretboard meets the soundboard the feels warm outside to touch. If you steam it too much the laquer begins to melt 😂. Also an after effect of the steaming was a slight paleness on either side of the fret board on the soundboard leading onto the soundboard from the stretching of the wood. Maybe if i was more careful this would not have happened. But now Im so happy with the setup after the steaming I would do it again. The guitar plays and sounds fantastic now. The steaming is supposed to be even more effective on solid wood guitar's, those old Fg Yamaha s are mostly all laminate. Its definitely worth the try just to see what happens! great video man. There is merit in it and I suppose if you do some experimentation and warn people of side effects its worth a try. From Ireland..

Nicely made video. I like the way you explain why a guitar repairer might turn down a job. Have you ever tried to fix a neck block that was leaning back from the force of the strings over time by using something similar to banjo rim rod to exert pressure from the end block to the neck block? I did this once on a friend's guitar because it would have been a waste of money for him to have the neck reset. But it was an opportunity for me to try this as an experiment. I figured the guitar would explode from the force but it didn't and the action came way down and turned an uplayable guitar to one that's has pretty good action. It's kind of like the "tone bar" that Fender used in Fender acoustic guitars in the '60's. In fact that's where I got the idea. I saw a patent drawing in one of my guitar books - "Fender - The Sound Heard Round The World", I think.

I understand the value/sentiment problem. I have an old Goya acoustic, made in Korea, that I've owned since 1983. I put a Fishman pick up in it. At one point, re-fretted it myself because no one would work on it. I did a poor job, being my first time at it. The epiphone case it is in is worth more than the guitar, yet I can't seem to part with the instrument. I played so many gigs with it and it has been everywhere with me all these years.

Thanks for all of your great videos! This one is timely for me as I just took the neck off an old Global 402s this morning. It has the four dowel pins you describe, and the steel truss bar. This is basically a lost cause as the strings were about 1/2” above the last fret, but watching your videos inspired me to tinker with it and I won’t lose anything if I screw it up. I used cold vinegar to soften the glue and had it off in about 10 minutes.I suspect I will have to cut the dowels off and go to the floating tenon as you suggest in this video, possibly in addition to the bridge doctor (which I just learned about, thank you). If I had watched this video before I took the neck off I would’ve just tried the steam and clamp method as an experiment. Have you ever seen anyone put a wedge in between the fretboard and the top as a way of compensating for a large dip?
