Mike my friend why do you want to remove the neck, it's not easy and typically is not necessary unless the body/neck joint is failing from an accident?

We love pictures :)

If you are looking for a "non destructive " technique, then as Hesh asked, Why?
This video may show you what you are up against:

If you have to do a neck reset, working through the neck pickup pocket, an oscillating tool with an off set blade might be your friend. Personally, that is a can of worms I would lump in with an Ovation reset, and would pass on. [uncle]
