Its back in the box and shelved away with several other bodies (guitar, I promise) set aside for a rainy day.

I visit this thread to look at it.

So.. the neck doesnt fit the icemans neckpocket.... fml... its not by a small margin either.. approx 3mm. The standard Jap pocket is the smallest and the neck I have is Indo... so... whoops, my bad.


This fix wont be fun... better break out the router.

I would narrow the neck not (ala set neck) not widen the pocket

Yeah, I'll get the proper sized pocket template and decide what I'll do from there
