So just before I attach the neck to the 12 string commission I'm completing, I decide to do a final check and make sure that the centre line hasn't moved and that I'm good to go.

So can I find the centre line on the body?

Maybe, but I'm not sure. So I do the best I can, and let it go. We'll see when I start to test the bridge position.

But apparently, I have super-human, ninja, jointing skills. So I'm not a complete moron :-)

The ninja skills are great Steve. [:Y:]
Only one problem. by mentioning them out loud, you've left milk and cookies on the bench for that Murphy guy. Next time wait til the check clears!

A tight joint is a joy forever as they use to say.

But then for a Ninja it comes with the turf.

Just be sure to heed the wise advice of Mr. Farmer. People in Durango know things that others may not.

Well, since you almost certainly got the binding joints lined up at the center seem, you've got a reference point...
