Neck making 5

Neck rough shape is done for both MD and SSJ (12 string) models.Both necks have 21mm thickness at 1st fret and 23mm thickness at 10th fret. Neck for the SSJ model is also finished the volute shaping. Next week, I might be able to complete neck making for both models. Both neck will be jointed to the body.

I spend a lot of time to do fine adjustment for neck angle for the neck joint. Finally, the fine adjustment is over. I also made a Brazilian RW fingerboard for 25.34" scale for the 12-stringth model, because 12-stringth configuration creates more string tension.  For the 6-stringth model, I selected 650mm (25.59") scale for more over tones. However, 25.59" scale makes more strong strings tension. I also trimmed the neck width. Now, two necks are ready for final joint to the body.
