    Hi Doc, a fret saw is probably hard work. A coping saw might be alot easier with a blade with much less depth will be easier to cut curved shapes of the headstock. Pretty cheap at the big green shed. They even sell cheap mini saws might work better too.

    Yes the years go by too quick alright

    What I might do is see if I can remove as much of the unwanted wood as I can, leave it, and then come back to it next Tuesday after I visit the Big Green Shed, I'll see if I can buy a good coping saw and some wood blades for it, next week's going to be busy for me.

    I want to make sure I get the headstock shaped right cause I only get one chance, don't want to muck it up.
