Start with a neck blank. These were really hard to square up because the flame maple tears out with the jointer. The drum sander had to do all the heavy lifting. Going back to using 1.5" neck blanks and peeling the headstock from the back of the neck for these builds. Allows me to keep the stripes straight.
The neck blank was 2 inches short of making 2 necks without scarfs. Since I ended up with one blank scarfed I need some accents.
Got them lined up and glued.
