Of course, that isn't how you're supposed to do neck resets! But this guitar was built with a neck/body joint that couldn't be easily taken apart. It seems unusual, but since it was a family heirloom, we had to find a way! It ended up being a fun project, especially since I got to do a little more inlay work.
The fingerboard inlay reads, "Ad Crucem" - Latin for "To the Cross". Scrolls on the bridge read "Tetelestai - Paid in Full", referring to Jesus Christ's last words on the cross.
I recently completed work on an old Fender F-70 Acoustic. It came into the shop to have a nasty rib crack fixed, but ended up staying for a neck reset and bridge reglue, too.
Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of the finished product, but it plays very well and sounds great! The crack repair was especially challenging, but turned out well - I had to be pretty inventive to brace the crack inside before inserting a spline. It was also a good lesson in finish touch-up.
And while we're at it, here's a couple pictures of my shop:
