    The pictures in post #56 look right. I would not sand the neck foot or neck pocket. Put the strings on and see.

    There is a lot of adjustment for the bridge height.

    I'm assuming the neck/fretboard is straight (that is - not curved).

    The little voices in my head keep telling me "build more guitars"

    Morning Trevor thanks for the reply
    I put a straight edge on the fret boards - it is really straight. Maybe a fraction of a millimetre gap between edge and fret at the head end, but apart from that - straight.

    OK I'll put some strings on tonightand see how it goes!
