    What can I say, Woks?
    Its years of experience before getting this one right

    Strictly its not true book match.
    I deliberaltly reversed it so the light works each half.

    Back on track.

    Finger board glued onto neck. Trial fit into LPjnr body.
    Noice..

    Before you ask, yes, its fretless..

    Why not?

    I will radius the board before I trim it back to the neck profile.

    looks unreal DB, good work, so is this neck going on your existing Jizzmaster baritone ?
    Now I know you can do a 2 piece fingerboard, needs to have the professor's expertise
