The natural finish is so sweet - brings back memories of my first 4001, a '79. And that's some great figuring on the neck. You're doing a great job Tom!

Great job Tom and what a beautiful neck! Scored well there.
Great looking neck.
How the hell do you achieve that much in 4 days!!
Very nice :)
I know right? I have a EXA-1 that is still going after a year and an SV-1 not far off that either! I envy folks that can get thing done that fast!Quote:

Well the neck is on and I've put the machine heads on to try and align the bridge. Every stage is getting a little high pressure now - bit worried about getting the bridge on aligned and the right distance!
I used Titebond Liquid Hide Glue on the neck - I clamped for 30 hours but the 'squeeze out' still feels a little gummy - is this normal? the neck feels solid enough.
great work Tom - after 30 hours of clamping neck should be fine.
