    I knew that. I'm an electrician and in our trade we use acetone based products to join pvc conduit to pvc conduit and other pvc fittings. I was just surprised to see it adhering to wood too. That's a new one on me...

    Titebond 1 is used for guitars due to the ability for it to be able to be steamed off again, allowing for repairs , resets and upgrades.
    Glue a neck on with titebond 3 it will be staying there due to the waterproof nature of the glue
