More Soldering Pencil/Copper Wire Neck Heating
Here’s some more pencil solderer/copper wire pics. All neck pulls were clean and successful.

I like that set-up! Probably rig something up like that on my next Gibson neck pull to get the heat to the cheeks. I would do the same thing on a Guild, but I don’t reset those anymore! 🙂
Oh, and I’ve done around 5 Nippon Ghaki Yamaha Red Labels. I’ve found that they were about twice as difficult to remove as a Martin. The fit of the dovetail was so good for one. And whatever hide glue they were using was very strong. Definitely doable though when most people shy away from them.

Hi Dave. It’s working great so far. I made a vid and I think it’s in the video archive. Neck Removal with Soldering Pencil Version 3 shows how I put it together and the components (obviously simple). What you don’t see is the rheostat. All together it costs about 60. for everything to get started.
