Great video. Just what I was looking for. My 15 year Taylor 214 fell and the body split from the heel of the neck to both sides of the body ( about 10 inches on either side). I took the tension off the strings and lightly clamped it back. The crack now is almost perfect, but I wasn’t sure how to glue it. This helps a lot! Thanks.

Ive been looking but cant seem to find a video for my problem. I had one of my acoustics in a multi stand so it was turned sideways and a friends girl friend was looking around and knocked one of my pedals off a home stereo speaker and it fell corner first right into the side of the body. It didnt knock the. Piece out but it did put a nice hole where it cracked in the shape of the corner of the pedal. It hasnt seem to hurt it any yet but i want to fix it anyway. With the wood still attached, is just a simple glue job or should I also put some sort of patch or brace inside for support? Thanks for your time

I would place a wood cleat behind it.

And which glue to use. My guitar fell and cracked at the bottom. How do I fix it?

He is using Titebond, most likely Titebond 3 which is the strongest of the Titebond line of glues.

How do you determine whether or not a crack requires cleats to be added to the inside for more reinforcement?

OneMileFinal I cleat them all. I did not cover that in this video because I am horrible at this and get all wound up in the process and forget to film stuff.

@@goodsonguitars no worries. The clearing process is the part I think will be tricky for my repair. Do you clamp them with magnets, specially clamps, or another method?

Ananya Malaviya I got these at stewmac.com. They are called spool clamps. Titebond is the glue I used. Depending on the crack location and size a different procedure may be needed.
