Looks great John. I think you will be very prosperous with judging by the quality of product you are putting out!

John, I'm impressed with your site. It's so usable.

I'm going to be ordering a neck in a month or two. What are the
laminates in the image you're using on the home page? The close up of
the volute.

Thanks, James. That neck is .02" maple flanked by .02" black fiber, flanked by .25" Padauk, flanked by .02" black fiber, flanked by Sapele. The extra lams would be a slight upcharge, but nothing too drastic. Let me know if you want to do something like that.

Terry, the angle that's built in is 1.5 degrees. It's designed to get any guitar most of the way there without going too far for any instrument. That way any necessary adjustment will be an increase of angle; easier to perform and no risk of moving the 14th.

One of my necks will pop into your fixture with no problem. You'll just have to have a matching tenon template.

I can also ship the necks with no pre-cut cheeks or tenon if you like.

No sweat. It's 5/8" and 11/16", respectively.
