Haywire Custom Shop Original Recessed Heel Crest Option for your guitar neck
Yes, it’s our idea, we have been employing it for years! Recessed Heel option: in 1981 Haywire Custom Shop discovered it was easier and more comfortable to play high notes with this feature. We simply move the Crest of the heel down approximately 7/8″ further into the guitar body which allows more articulate Pro playing. We do it right-for you.
