Description: StewMacs Maple Neck Shims are the perfect solution for adjusting the angle of a bolt-on neck, ensuring optimal playability and tone. Made from solid maple, these tapered shims provide full contact support, avoiding gaps that can lead to neck issues or tone loss. These shims are ideal for players, repair shops, and luthiers looking for a professional, precise fit. Unlike makeshift solutions such as matchbook covers or guitar picks, our neck shims are precision-engineered to fit snugly into neck joints, providing a solid, moisture-resistant contact surface. As noted by Dan Erlewine in his Guitar Player Repair Guide, proper shims are essential for maintaining tone and preventing neck warping. Our ready-made shims save time and provide consistent quality for quick repairs. Available in three angles—0.25°, 0.5°, and 1°—these shims offer versatile solutions for any bolt-on neck adjustment. The 0.25° shim is versatile and stackable for precise adjustments, while the 0.5° shim is perfect for Fender and other solid-body guitars. The 1° shim is designed specifically for bass guitars with post-mounted bridges.
