Innovative Flaxwood tone material & guitars

Flaxwood necks

Reinforced with Carbon Fibre for Unparalleled Stability and Sustain

Flaxwood Necks offer players the same trademark sustain, responsiveness, and stability that have made Flaxwood Guitars a favorite among discerning musicians worldwide.

Flaxwood Necks  are ready to play right out of the box, though a professional setup once bolted onto the guitar is invaluable for optimizing the player’s experience.

Wood is susceptible to fluctuations in humidity, and even thoroughly seasoned and finished lumber is prone to some degree of shrinking or swelling as it reacts to moisture in the air. To address this issue, Flaxwood has developed a patented proprietary material that combines fresh-growth spruce fiber with a resonant synthetic binder. This blend produces a rock-solid, moldable material with a consistent acoustic response that is virtually immune to changing environmental conditions. This is especially noticeable in the neck, where the action will remain constant regardless of outside factors, helping to lock in your setup and playability.

The Flaxwood Headstock features a 12-degree angle and a machined head configuration that allows the strings to run straight from the nut to the tuning pegs. This design, combined with the self-lubricating properties of the nut, ensures a smooth, stable tuning action.

Flaxwood Composite material has extremely consistent working properties. No knots, interlocked grain and other inconsistencies found in natural wood. Because it has no grain structure as such, it can be machined in ways that are impossible to achieve in natural wood.

The Flaxwood Classic set neck on all Flaxwood Guitars have a compound transition neck based on a “Medium-C” profile at the 1st fret, flattening out slightly by the 12th fret. The Flaxwood Bolt-on Neck has a regular profile based on a “Slim Taper-D”.
