A first kit for Christmas: JMA-1L

Oh dear!

You would normally collect the pieces that broke off and stick them back on again.

Otherwise you'd probably be best getting some epoxy modelling putty and using that to fill the missing sections. You'd probably have to colour it with something or else paint on top of it with some enamel paints to match the wood. Something like this: https://www.milliput.com/index.html

The pieces is always on the neck, but she stand up a little.
How Can I do it stick again ?

hey its your build and its what ever your comfortable with mate but you wont see the gremlins until your final coats have dried personally i don't use wood filler for grain filler but others do and that's another story 😀

Good save Maxence!

[Simon Barden]

Well done! A good save. Just let it dry for a day before trying to fit the new nut.

Yep, I will do it

Hello ! If I send you this message, it is because I am completely lost with the neck! : / I have, for now, removed the nut and quickly look at the curvature of the neck that looks good, I let your expert eye decide!

I know that I must now put the frets at the same height: I have already masked with tape.
but then ?
what should I do to finish the neck?
sand it?
Which product to use to "preserve" it? Should it be varnished?
I am completely lost on what I have to do with this neck!

Hi Maxence,
If you have masked off the fretboard you can go ahead with sanding,unfortunatley its a bit hard for me to give advice on what product you could finish with because i'm not sure what you have available to you there in France. However I'm certain there would be someone here that could give you some better ideas on what to use.
