Best to do a mock fit to see how it looks.

On my recently completer ES1 that angled edge looks familiar and wasn't too big a problem to work with. I ended up filling the crack with natural timber mate once neck and body had been glued together as it was visible from a side on glance. If what you have isn't visible, not as big a problem to deal with.
