    Nice, wish I would have saw this and I would have made my jig different. If I need to do a neck again I will use some of these ideas. In my case I did not cut and flip. I took 2 pieces and put them together. You could for example do the headstock out of ebony and the neck maple. I just did Maple and Maple, but it allowed me to thickness the headstock down a bit before gluing it up.

    As usual, your jigs are great. So well thought out. Super cool ❤. I have a question, you've probably worked with most wood types out there, which do you find as being the most vibrational? I love when I strum a guitar and the whole thing seems to hum. Definitely a dopamine hit for me. Is this what's described as resonance? I dunno, but I'll play thirty of the exact same guitar model, and maybe one will have that vibration to it, which is a must-have for me to buy a guitar. Have you noticed any consistency to this with certain woods?

    I'm surprised how inexpensive you are pricing these. Normally I get the idea and build my own version of it. At this price, why would I bother, it would cost me more in baltic birch and my time, might as well buy it from you and be done with it. My plans call for eleven degrees though, can a non stocked angle be special ordered?

    Agree, and everything he sells is like StewMac, way over priced, like 100% profit over priced. I get a 10% or 20% profit, but anything over that is a fk you to the buyer cause all they care about is the moneys. His $70 Radius Sanding Blocks is a joke and easy to make and people are falling head over heals over it like morons. I can use the exact same wood: Sugar Maple, Hard Maple, Rock Maple (all the same just different names). He calls it Hard Rock Maple to make it sound special like its the hardest Maple, but it's the same wood. A 2x4x8 Sugar Maple is between $100-$110 (as of 2023). Cut into 4 pieces and sell them at $30 a piece and you pay shipping (in your country only of course). I can build a mini cnc, for that price and get perfer persuasion.
