    Having a quick look around the body it seems i have escaped the glue dramas that some people have encountered.

    and for those wishing to replace their nuts with a bone one that is already slotted. This looks like the one to go for.

    I spent a couple of hours sanding today, its starting to look the goods. I found a couple of issues which is unfortunate. One, was the separation of a small portion of the binding and the other was the cap being extremely thin in one section. Ive kept the sandpaper away from it.

    Ive been able to sort out the neck/body join out except for a small gap which im unsure of how to fill. Its about 1.5mm across. Any ideas? Does it mean the body is holding the neck higher than it should be?

    The gap under the fretboard is from the radius of the body.

    Jobs for tomorrow.

    1. Remove frets from Gavs Beatle Bass

    2. Start finishing Gavs Beatle Bass in Conch Girl

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
