SECTION 1: SAFETY

Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or read­ing glasses are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropri­ate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Because there are various ways to cut and join wood, you can make substitutions for the methods
stated in this plan. We try to suggest the easiest methods possible. However, only you know your
skills with each piece of machinery. Never compromise your safety by using a cutting method
with which you are not comfortable. Instead, find an alternative approach that will yield the same
result.

These instructions assume that you are intimately familiar with the safe operation and use of
woodworking machinery and woodworking tools, and understand the techniques used to build this
project. If you do not qualify for both of these criteria, STOP building this project for your own
safety. Read and understand the owners manual for the machinery you intend to use, take a wood­working class or visit your local library for more information. Woodworking machinery and tools
are inherently dangerous because they use sharp edges that can and will cause serious personal
injury including amputation and death. Do not underestimate the ability of these tools and machin­ery to cause injury. Never operate any tool without all guards in place and always wear approved
safety glasses. For your own safety, please heed this warning.

SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY

Shaping Headstock

The headstock for these models comes unfin­ished so you can cut it to your own design. These
instructions will guide you through designing the
shape of the headstock and placing pegholes.

To shape the headstock:

1. Trace the headstock on a piece of paper. Test

various ideas for headstock shapes on paper
before cutting into the headstock.

5

⁄16" and 25⁄64" Drill Bits ................1

Note: To determine the string slot (Figure 5)

locations, you can place the nut on the draw­ing and mark the slots. If the strings cross the
nut at a sharp angle, this increases friction
and makes tuning difficult. It also increases
the risk of the strings pulling out of the nut
slots.

4. Layout the tuners on the test paper to ensure
they are stacked tightly against each other.
(See Page 14 for instructions on installing the
tuners.)

5. Redraw your final headstock shape onto the
headstock with a pencil.

6. Cut the headstock out with a bandsaw or
coping saw. Be sure to cut only to the outside
edge of your pencil line.

Note: To cut sharp corners, cut several slots

perpendicular to the corner, then cut out the
small pieces. This will reduce binding on the
blade.

2. Layout pegholes for the tuners. Space the

15

centers of the pegholes exactly

4. Wipe the guitar body with a damp cloth to
“raise” the wood grain.

5. Wait until the wood is dry and resand the
entire body with #220 grit sandpaper to sand
the “raised” grain smooth.

6. Repeat Step 4 & 5.

Note: If you want to stain your guitar, the stain

should be applied now before continuing with
the next step. Stains cannot be applied to
the guitar body after the sanding sealer is
applied.

7. Apply a primer if you plan to paint the guitar
a solid color. Apply a coat of sanding sealer
if you stained the guitar. Use the sealer
or primer according to the manufacturer's
instructions.

Sanding Body

The guitar body has been sanded at the factory,
but it is up to you to do the final sanding before
the finish is applied. To get a good finish, the
body should be sanded with a series of sandpa­per grits up to #320 grit.

Components and Hardware Needed: Qty

Guitar Body ....................................................... 1

To sand the guitar body:

1. Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator and
ANSI-approved safety glasses when
sanding wood!

2. Use a flexible sanding block with #150 grit

aluminum-oxide sanding paper to sand the
guitar body until there is a consistent scratch
pattern on the entire surface.

Note: Make sure the primer or sealer you use

is compatible with your finish.

8. When the sanding sealer or primer is dry, use
#320 grit sandpaper for final sanding. DO
NOT sand through to bare wood.

Sanding Neck

Like the guitar body, the guitar neck has been
rough sanded at the factory. Final sanding should
be done as described in the previous sub-section
Sanding Body. Consider applying inlays or addi­tional design work on the fretboard and head­stock before final sanding.

Note: If you are considering inlays or other design
work, take time to test your designs in scrap wood
before performing the work on the instrument.

Note: DO NOT round over the neck pocket

or the body cavities.

When hand sanding, always sand in the

same direction as the wood grain.

3. Resand the entire guitar body with #220 grit
sanding paper and lightly round over the out­side edges of the body.

-8-

The fretboard requires no sanding. Sanding the
fretboard will affect the playability of the guitar
and could lead to irrepairable damage.

Model H8070 (Mfg. Since 7/06)

Finishing Neck

Some of the finishing options include stains, lac­quers, varnishes and oil finishes. Traditionally,
this style of guitar has a clear finish on the neck.
Depending on the type, finishes can be applied
with a spray gun, brush, rag, or a spray can.
Finish materials and books on finishing instru­ments can be ordered through Grizzly Industrial
or numerous luthier supply catalogs.

Figure 8. Scraping the fretboard.

7. Let wood dry naturally and completely.

Components and Hardware Needed: Qty

Guitar Neck ....................................................... 1

To finish the guitar neck:

1. Mask off the surface of the fretboard. Carefully

press all the masking tape edges securely to
the fretboard. The finish coat can seep under
these edges, especially near corners, uneven
edges, and places where the frets meet the
fingerboard.

1

2. Make an "S" shaped hook out of
rod or a coat hanger that has been folded in
half.

3. Wipe the entire neck with a tack cloth to
remove any dust.

4. Thread the hook through the upper peghole
and hang the neck in the finishing room.

/4" steel

8. Use a clean rag to wipe wood finishing oil on
the dryed surface of the fretboard.

Finishing Body

This guitar looks incredible with a clear finish that
highlights the wood grain patterns. The surface
can be stained prior to finishing or a transparent
pigment can be added to the finish. These instruc­tions guide you through a very basic finishing pro­cess. Books describing different guitar finishing
techniques are available through luthier supply
catalogs, or through your local library. Clear finish
materials and books on finishing can be ordered
through Grizzly Industrial. Finishing a guitar is a
difficult task. If you are unsure of your skills; do
your research, practice on scrap wood, or take it
to a professional.

Components and Hardware Needed: Qty

Guitar Body ....................................................... 1

Most finishes are hazard­ous to your health. Wear a
NIOSH/OSHA approved res­pirator with particulate and
gas/vapor filters, safety
glasses, rubber gloves, and
work in a well ventilated area
when finishing.

5. Apply the finish according to Finishing Body,
Steps 5 –10, on Page 10.

6. Before wet sanding, remove the masking

tape from the fretboard and carefully scrape
any excess finish off the fretboard with a
razor blade or chisel held perpendicular to
the surface, as shown in Figure 8.

Model H8070 (Mfg. Since 7/06)

To finish the guitar body:

1. Mask off the neck pocket (Figure 4). Press

the masking tape tight against the edges of
the pocket so the finish does not seep under
the tape.

2. Screw through the neck pocket screw holes
into a long piece of wood to use for a handle
during spraying. Drill a hole in the end of the
handle for hanging from a hook.

3. Wipe the entire guitar body with a tack cloth
to remove all dust.

4. Thread the hook through the temporary han­dle and hang the body in the finish room.

-9-

5. Apply several thin coats of the finish, follow­ing the manufacturer's instructions. Multiple
thin coats usually produce a better quality
finish than one heavy coat.

6. Sand the entire body with #400 grit wet and
dry sandpaper after at least three coats of fin­ish have been applied. DO NOT sand through
the finish—be careful on the edges.

Mounting Neck

7. Apply more finish, sanding between coats,
until the finish is the desired thickness.

Note: If finishing with a solid color, you may

wish to apply several coats of a clear finish
over the top, sanding between coats, to add
depth to the finish.

8. When the final coat has dried at least a week,
preferably a month, remove the temporary
handle and masking.

9. Wet sand the finish using #600 grit wet and
dry sandpaper using a sanding block, fol­lowed with #1000 grit wet and dry sandpa­per.

10. Buff the finish by hand or with a buffer, start­ing with a medium polish and work up to a
high gloss polish.

Note: If using a buffing machine, be careful

to avoid going through the finish, especially
on the edges.

Unless otherwise indicated, we strongly recom­mend using a drill press for the majority of drilling
to obtain the most precise results. However, an
electric/cordless drill fitted with a depth stop or a
drill stand can be used if you do not have a drill
press.

We recommend using a hollow punch (see Page
24, Accessories) to carve out holes in the finish
before drilling any holes. Also, a router pad can
help reduce scratches in the finish.

To mount the neck to the guitar body:

1. Insert the neck into the neck pocket, and

check to make sure the neck and body are
flush as shown in Figure 9.

NOTICE

Dust particles suspended in the air will
settle on wet finishes, causing less than sat­isfactory results. To avoid this problem:

• Leave the finishing room undisturbed
for 24 hours prior to applying the fin­ish.

• Avoid making unnecessary movements
when entering the finish room.

• Apply the finish to the desired guitar
parts and immediately leave the finish
room.

• DO NOT return to the room until the
specified drying time has elapsed.

4. Insert a

⁄32" drill bit into each neck hole
(Figure 10). While pressing down slightly,
twist the drill bit by hand to make pilot holes n
the neck.

5. Unclamp the neck from the body.

Figure 11. Using screw tip depth to set depth

stop.

5. Set the neck fretboard face down on the drill
press table, and set the depth stop to the
mark from Step 4.

To determine neck mounting hole depth:

5

1. Secure the

⁄32" drill bit in the drill press chuck,
raise the table, and set the neck, fretboard­down, on top of a clean piece of scrap wood
on the table.

2. Set the drill press depth stop so the tip of
the bit will ONLY drive half way through the
neck.

Note: Correctly set the depth stop or the bit

may drill through the fretboard!

Another way to determine neck mounting hole
depth (Optional):

1. Insert the neck into the neck pocket.

2. Place the neckplate on top of the body so a

mounting hole protrudes beyond the body
and neck (see Figure 11).

To drill mounting holes in the neck:

5

1. Lower the

⁄32" drill bit over the center of the
pilot holes and drill the holes to the correct
depth.

To mount the neck to the body:

1. Insert the neck into the neck pocket, and

place the neckplate on the body.

Note: Do not glue the neck to the body.

2. Align the mounting holes in the neck and
body and neckplate.

3. Fasten the four 5 x 45mm screws, but do not
final tighten them (Figure 12).

3. Insert a 5 x 45mm screw through the plate
so it hangs down to the side of the neck and
body.

4. Gently mark the screw tip depth with a pen­cil.

Note: You may want to cover the screw tip

marking location with masking tape to avoid
scratching the finish.

plate (leave an even distance between the
pickguard and bridge).

12. Determine whether you want to mount the
strings through the bridge or whether you
want to mount them to the body using the
ferrules.

— If you decide to mount the strings through

the bridge, skip to Mounting Tuners,
Page 14.

—If you decide to mount the strings through

the body, go to Installing Ferrules.

Installing Ferrules

The strings can be installed through the body
using the ferrules—instead of just through the
bridge. One advantage of using the ferrules is that
the strings will sustain notes longer. Ferrules can
be mounted flush (Figure 18) or above (Figure

19) the surface of the guitar.

10. Mark the mounting holes for the control plate

and pick guard (Figure 17), then remove
these components, as well as the neck,
bridge, and pick guard pickup.

Note: Take care to correctly position the con-

trol plate mounting holes so you do not drill
into the control plate cavity.

3. Guide the string across the saddle (Figure

31), over the nut, and through the hole in the

corresponding tuning post.

4. Allow only enough slack in the string for 2-3
rotations around the tuning post.

Note: If too much slack is allowed, then the

string could wind off the tuning post after
many successive rotations. If not enough
slack is allowed, then the string may not hold
the winding tension.

5. Bend the string at a right angle across the
edge of the tuning post.

6. Rotate the tuners until the string just begins
to hold the winding tension (Figure 30).

Note: DO NOT tighten the strings beyond the

initial tensioning at this time. Final tensioning
should be completed during the string tuning
process.

SECTION 5: SETUP

General

2. Place a straightedge from the 1st fret to the

17th. Measure any gaps between the straight­edge and the frets with the feeler gauge.

Guitar set up is an art that requires skill, patience
and experience. If you have the patience, you can
acquire the skill and experience. If you don't have
the patience, you may want to have your guitar
set up by a qualified guitar technician.

This section presents an overview of setup prac­tices. We highly recommended that you research
more in-depth methods. Books on setting up
electric guitars can be ordered through Grizzly
Industrial, luthier supply catalogs, or may be
available through your local library.

Neck Adjustment

The guitar neck was adjusted perfectly straight
before it was packaged; however, the moisture
content of wood acclimates to the humidity of
the surrounding environment. This characteristic
results in movement of the wood components
with regards to alignment. The neck may require
adjustment several times each year, especially in
regions where the seasonal climate changes are
more drastic.

—If the neck is flat, or bowed up 0.012" or

less, the neck is set up correctly. Continue
to the next subsection.

—If the gap is greater than 0.012", or if the

neck bows away from the straightedge,
continue to Step 3.

3. Loosen the strings, remove the pick guard
and pick guard pickup, and turn the truss
rod nut (Figure 33) counterclockwise with a
4mm wrench to release tension on the neck.
Retighten until the nut begins to grab.

Pickup Height

Tuning

Pickup height can have a dramatic effect on the
audio output signal. The closer the strings are
to the pickup, the higher the audio output signal
will be. If the strings are too close, distortion is
caused by magnetic interference from the elec­tronic components.

Tools Needed Qty

Metal Straightedge .............................................1

To measure the string height at the pickup:

1. Measure the height of the 1st and 6th strings

Tuning is an important guitar concept. If the guitar
is not in tune, the resulting sound is unpleasant.
These instructions explain how to tune by ear.

To tune the guitar:

1. Play a Low E pitch on a piano, a tuning fork,

or an electronic computer file.

2. Play an open (non-fretted) 6th string and
adjust the tuner to match the Low E.

Note: Always tune up. If the string is tuned

high, loosen the string to lower the pitch,
then tune the string up to the correct note.

3. Tune the 5th string by playing the 6th string
while it is being pressed (fretted) at the 5th
fret, and then play the open 5th string. Adjust
the 5th string tuner until the notes match.

the 4th string tuner until the notes match.

5. Perform the same tuning step on the 3rd and
4th string.

6. When tuning the 2nd string, fret the 3rd string
at the 4th fret instead of the 5th fret.

7. Tune the 1st string in the same manner as
the 6th, 5th, 4th, and 3rd strings.

Setting Intonation

string to correct for flatness/sharpness on each
string. This is a simple process that takes a lot of
trial and error.

To set the intonation:

Screws

Figure 39. Saddle adjustment screws.

Note: This can also be done with an elec-

tronic tuner by tuning the harmonic note to
be exactly in tune and then adjusting the
saddle until the note played in Step 2 is also
in tune.

3. Repeat Steps 1 –2 until the string is in
tune. Repeat the process for the rest of the
strings.

1. Lightly touch and then release the 1st string
directly above the twelfth fret as you pluck
the string to play a harmonic note.

2. Now pluck the string while holding it fretted at
the twelfth fret. If this note is sharper than the
note played in Step 1, move the saddle away
from the neck by turning the saddle adjust­ment screw (Figure 39) clockwise. If this
note is flat in comparison, move the saddle
toward the neck.
