Hang on, so do they position the bridge off the f-hole refs or position the f-holes off the bridge? [:-?] Something tells me I shouldn't care, but.......I...
I like a narrow neck...strings 5/8" apart at the bridge....more standard is 3/4". Allow about 3/16-1/4" on either edge of the fingerboard.... call it 2 3/4"...
neither/both but...since the reference marks are "permanent" being carved into the wood and the bridge is moveable/removeable for repairs, I would guess that...
Hey, I design around 50 mm or 1 15/16" at the nut usually no taper, but that would be ok... a "standard" PBass is narrower at the nut @ 43mm and wider at the...

I have a box with a lengthy cherry neck (I just never decided what size I wanted it to be before now) that is going to become a two string bass. I'm going to...
Mornin' Darren, I use Titebond II and clamp the heck out of it. Be sure to rough up the surface before gluing. Especially with hard wood thats been through the...
