Step 4 Cut the Template
First make a thin template as advised on YouTube.
New jig saw worked well on MDF.hihi
Then used the new belt sander on this jig I copied from YouTube, to finally shape the template. The belt sander on the jig has turned out to be very handy for many shaping jobs since.
The use the thin template to cut real template from 16mm MDF
Step 5 – How will the neck fit
I purchased a neck that was supposed to be Gibson style but it appears to be a hybrid with a Gibson neck and Fender foot. I decided to make it a bolt-on then if I eventually wanted a more Gibson type neck I can fit it. The neck pocket will not need to be very deep for this one.
The SG is supposed to have a 3 degree back angle but I will have to work that out when I get to cutting the neck cavity.
I have added a bit to the length to the tongue under the neck to give me a few options for fitting it.
