I just picked up a used guitar and it has some warp in the scarf joint. It affects the first 2 frets only on the high e and b. Leveling the frets would fix it but would still leave a warped fingerboard. Anyone know any good fixes? Thanks for any guidance guys. |

Hi, Without seeing this neck I would suggest you proceed with you first thought level the frets and see how it plays. For a long term soultion level the fingerboard and refret. If the neck is twisted a new neck maybe in order. |
