Oh Bugger! I mis read the note... I thought it said you wanted Conch Girl and a Fretless neck.......Quote from Gavin1393 on June 7, 2013, 12:58
I haven't pulled the neck out yet to have a look at the headstock....I'm a little nervous about what I might discover.....after having given special instructions on my order form!
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

You forget that this thread is to prove that Wudtone is a superior finish....how do I answer the cynics if I haven't used tru-oil on one of the guitars.....what am I saying?
