Hi Ray, I missed you at the amp fest Saturday. Question, What size would you use on standard electric neck?

I'm planing a couple of builds and am considering using carbon fibre to stiffen the neck and strengthen the headstock.

i reckon 2 of 1mm x 6mm would likely be sufficient to add enough stiffness but cutting a 1mm trench would be problematic
probably would use 2 of the 1x6mm each side of the truss rod channell - 3x6mm seems pretty big for a guitar - i will use 2 of the 6x3mm in the bass i have just begun

didn't get to ampfest this year - just too much going on here and it completely passed me by
