Just a little something to lighten the mood a little.

Guess how many necks are in these two boxes. Closest guess wins a fully serviced Ebony fingerboard of their choice.

Guessing ends noon tomorrow (3/29). Anyone with an advantage is disqualified. Anyone who guesses the exact number will get a fingerboard regardless of the number of winners.

I've placed my 24" caliper in the pic for size reference.

Have fun and good luck!

I guess one really big one. Half in each box. Just go ahead and ship my fingerboard as I'm sure I won.

Paul, I actually laughed out loud, which you know I hardly ever do.   

Thank you for saving me the trouble of disqualifying you.

Disqualify me? Why? Just because we talked about it on the phone not 2 hours ago shouldn't make me disqualified.
Anyway, I'm sticking to my answer!
