Can a broken Bakelite neck be fixed?

Steve Wilson · From: Morgan Hill, California, USA

I got a phone call from a gentleman who has a prewar rick 6 stringt B model that someone broke the neck off at the 10th fret. I have not yet seen the guitar, but he descibes it as a clean break. Can this type of problem be fixed, or should I suggest that I build him a new neck? Has anyone had any experience with this problem? Gluing, installing reinforcing rods, etc? I appreciate any words of wisdom.

I sent you an email ...

Sounds like a job for "Mr. Rickenbacher" ... Wayne Tanner.
