  • The 2010 Construction of the Martin “0” Guitar

    Martin

    The article talks about a guitar restoration project where the focus is on the headstock. The headstock is the part of the guitar located at the end of the neck, which holds the tuning pegs for the strings.

    The author mentions that they have used a nice piece of blackwood veneer and vintage style tuning pegs to complete the headstock. Blackwood is a type of wood that is native to Australia and is known for its dark color and beautiful grain patterns. Veneer refers to a thin layer of wood that is glued onto the surface of another material, in this case, the guitar headstock.

    The author further explains that while the headstock looks almost complete, they still need to make a truss cover. The truss rod is a metal bar that runs inside the neck of the guitar to provide support and stability to the neck. The cover will hide the truss rod and give the headstock a finished look.

    Overall, the article highlights the importance of the headstock in a guitar restoration project and how adding small details like a nice piece of wood veneer and vintage tuning pegs can enhance the overall look of the instrument.
