Title: Linear dovetail neck joint for musical instrument
Inventor: FREDERICK E GREENE
IPC: G10D3/095
Filed: 2020-06-05
Abstract: A linear dovetail neck joint for a musical instrument having a neck, a body, and a fretboard. The linear dovetail neck joint relies on an internal dovetail with screw- adjustable tension while avoiding screws that go directly into the neck. The linear dovetail neck joint allows for extreme fret accessibility in the upper register of the fretboard (due to lack of heel on the neck), easier neck height adjustments, intonation correction, and unique front block configurations with hand relief — all without the need for adhesives. The linear dovetail neck joint permits a practical and aesthetically pleasing neck-to-body joint without the need for a heel on the neck. The result is a neck-to-body joint that is easily adjustable and serviceable.
