Ok, so I have started to shape the neck and it did not come out how I expected, I had my router bit depth too low. I will keep it though, still feels comfortable and my first build is a learning curve of sorts. I also made a mistake when I built it up where it meets the box. It must have shifted out a little when clamping and have a slight gap. Other than how it looks will that cause me an issue? The neck goes through the box. Lastly, the head, how long should it be? I have read 5 inches, I have read 4.5 inches. It is 5 right now.

Thanks for any advice,
Mike

Awesome stuff. I especially like the repurposed factor. I hate waste and I hate throwing stuff in the trash knowing it is going to a landfill.

Again, great work!
