I need to add that once I understood the neck angle adjustment mechanism, it all started to make sense. It really is an ingenious device. Maybe I'll make a video or two once I get a chance.

Got them all done today.

The Southpaw!

Nows a good time to mention that long time forum member Andy Birko shaped these necks for me. And he did a very good, very precise job (CNC). I thought the was going to shoot me over the diamond volute design. Many iterations. But it's a very good end result. I asked that he not do the tenon but leave a tool mark at my specified depth. It was exactly where it needed to be in all 6 necks.
