I'd love a baritone neck too thanks DB, maybe after you've done the templates and Gavmeisters neck you can please help me build one. Length of fingerboard needed will be about 590mm minimum I see 24th fret is 545mm from the nut

If you look at the 24th Fret and the 22nd Fret of the examples I posted earlier, both are 181.76mm from the bridge. So as the lads were saying, there is no need to rework the body.
It's like the golden ratio!

well spotted Gavmeister, the magic number.
I have a conch girl kit from the leftover wudtone so when I'm up DB's man cave next time we can put a coat of conch girl on your neck and headstock, is that ok Gavmiester ?

Which one do you want Woks?
The Barry White scale or the Tills Lindermann scale?

hey DB, not sure what is the scale length of each of those ?
I'm happy with the same as Gav's scale 727mm with a tele heel, no point making two templates.
These will also need a much longer truss rod too than a standard guitar.
I'll probably end up building a scratch body for it so will make the neck heel size/shape to suit

thanks for enlightening me DB, I wouldn't have a clue what axes and scale length they played
