One of the most challenging things for me was getting a good angle on the neck. It's not like a regular CBG. You need a really good angle on the strings. Here's the simplest solution I could come up with-
Simply sand the carry through at a slight angle and then glue on your neck! Easy right!?!
I drew a pencil line so you could see the area that was sanded down before glueing
