I have been looking around for a few ideas regarding a neck block for a steel string build. Anyone care to chime in. I will be using a tenon joint for my 1st build.

Brad,

My favorite is the one that Colin Symonds posted. Search neck joint and put Colin S in as the author. You'll come up with this.

Brad -

William Cumpiano's site has a clear and simple explanation of the M&T neck joint that he now uses, supported by KD bolts. I like it a whole lot better than the dovetail that I mangled on my first three guitars....
