I will remove a lot of mahogany in order to shape the body to flow into the neck profile, i dislike the neck shelf that interrupts the aesthetics


I've been spending some time shaping the neck profile, i think a C-profile suits me best, a thick C-profile that is
the neck currently measures 30mm (1.18") at the nut and 37mm (1.45") at the 12th fret - it sure feels comfortable in my hand but do you reckon after fretting that it will become a bit too thick?

This is how my hand sits at the moment



I have been feeding the wood plenty of teak oil, i plan to stain the body to get something of a starburst look, the neck will only get teak oil and a lot of it
