Abstract: A neck for stringed musical instruments which is solid in form and constructed of alternating layers of an epoxy resin and powdered carbon mixture, and of longitudinally laid carbon fibers, preferably in the form of carbon fiber ribbon, which have been coated with the epoxy resin and powdered carbon mixture, with any remaining space within the form also filled with the epoxy resin and powdered carbon mixture. The preferred epoxy resin and powdered carbon mixture is thirty percent powdered carbon, by volume. A method for construction includes a three-piece form within whose cavities the alternating layers of carbon fiber ribbon and epoxy resin and powdered carbon mixture are laid.
