Brass Shims for guitar necks – Set of 4
R 99
Reason for Reporting
4 x Brass shims of various thicknesses to get the perfect angle on your guitar neck.
If your neck angle is not correct it is impossible to get low action or get rid of buzz. Normally people use cardboard, paper, wood or other things to shim the neck but this can take away sustain, putting a piece of brass between 2 pieces of wood actually increases sustain.
Easy Installation And Operation:
Remove neck by taking out the screws at the back
Place the smallest size shim at the back of the pocket if your neck was angled too far forward, at the front of the pocket if your neck was angled too far back
Put the neck back on and look down the neck from the body, Preferably you want it angled back ever so slightly, increase the shim size if there is not enough angle, ideally you want a -1° angle
If using the large size shim, use smaller sizes next to it to create a gradual slope and eliminate air gaps
