Rad or sad?

Working on some miscellaneous parts / the neck while I wait for the body to cure on the ozempic meteora

I’d like to respectfully be a nay sayer. The body is amazing but I’m wondering why you needed so many shims on the neck? Are you trying to compensate for neck angle because of the bridge? Also three types of wood which all have very different densities was a cool idea but very hard to execute. Coming from the dude who talked to you about checks/cracks in padouk if you remember?

Yessir.

Yeah, so the different woods was just a thing that kinda happened because I was rifling through offcuts.

Flat sawn wenge is my worst enemy haha Can we get some pictures of the neck and neck pocket in the future? I’m super excited to see you finish this build brotha In the future think about compensating neck angle from the neck pocket of the body so you don’t have to change the dimensions of your necks heel. Looking at your body now, I can see the rerouting the neck pocket would’ve been a bad idea

Oh there's still time to compensate! I was just going to use a tiny shim to get a little angler to it all fender style.
