I'd send DB an email to see if he has an old neck or rosewood fingerboard he could cut off a bit at the nut end so you can glue it in place so 1st fret will be 35mm.
I think it was 35.3mm for first fret to nut on the G type scale of 24.75 inches.
Thanks heaps Wokks. I must say I was a bit shocked to see that angle on the fretboard as I didn't notice it when the plastic nut was on. Mind you I didn't take much notice as I always knew that thing was going to be whacked off.

In brighter news I received my front and back headstock decals from Japan! Yaaaay
