    Got some work done on neck today. Shaped headstock. Drilled tuners. Super glued finger board and got nut fitted. What's everyone think of the headstock shape?

    Another view. My phone will only upload one pic per post and files aren't too big

    Damn that's hot Wokka. Not using a locking nut?

    Hey Pabs will see how it plays without a locking nut. Trying to keep it simple. See how it goes. Cheers

    got some more work done visited DB yesterday and he kindly helped me get the frets in and dressed, and cut the nut slots in the bone nut. I did a mock build

    couple more photos. I clearly stained the headstock too dark so I'll sand it back a bit and try and get the colour closer to the body

    Fretwork looks great for your first attempt. Wish I had a super coach like DB.
