Sounds great, Aaron! Nice, clear tone. I didn’t realize the size of the box - it’s a biggun. I meant to ask that when you mounted the neck with the screw, did you add a detent or something to keep the neck from turning side to side, or did you let the screw and string tension hold it straight?
Thank you Noah. I put the finger board on temporarily, and then put the neck on with the fingerboard nearly touching the top of the box. This helped me get the neck on straight. Then I used wood glue, and clamped the neck in place while it dried. Then I took the fingerboard off to do other work. After the glue dried, and the neck was secure, I drilled a pilot hole through the heel of the neck and inserted a wood screw to hold it more securely to the box.
