(Silly) Question 1: why is there a half routed hole in the heel of the neck?


Question 2: there's a bit of a gap in the pictured inlay, I am not really sure how to fix this, anyone had a similar issue and fix?


Question 3: there's a bit of a gap in the body at the neck end of the cutaway, the binding sticks out a bit. It will be covered by the fret board and the neck heel but may still visible looking from the back. Any ideas on how to fix/cover it, should i even bother?

Q1. Your guess is as good as anyones....
Q2. Pro fixup would be to rip em all out and replace with real Paua or MOP.. Otherwise it might not be so noticable when you have oiled the fingerboard...
Q3. File off that sticky outy bit. You may also need to sand a bit off the top edge to get the neck sitting correctly.
These set necks can take a little fiddling around to get them nice and flush, but more importantly square to the bridge!
