They're just sitting there. Before I took that pic I had been messing around trying to get them in the right order size wise. The first two are actually sitting on the second and fourth fret. That first section of the fretboard will get cut off, the first slot is actually the nut.

Thanks for keeping an eye on me. It wasn't too long ago that I managed to f#*k up the markers on a neck I was doing for myself.

Arod wouldn't have needed steroids if he had used that neck instead of a bat!
That's one sweet handful

Alright, the neck is all shaped. Just some tuner holes and its done. I've got next week off so I should be able to make some real progress on the lesquire! There's really not much woodworking left to do.

Awesome

How about a mock up with the hardware just laying on the piece?
