No problem. :)

Neck is now attached to the body.




Even more pictures to invert. :P

Crowning and polishing the frets, halfway.... Man, I always hate this job, it seems to take forever without any variation!

Yup - my least favourite job too...

The fretboard is flat, I prefer the wider ones that way.

Adjusting two trussrods is done in the same way as a single one, I start out with giving them roughly the same (light) tension, just by feel. And after that it depends on how hard the strings are pulling on them how much I need adjust them.

Nice teaser for how the top of the body will turn out!

These last four will be done during assembly.
But first... Sanding and oiling.
