Originally I had planned to use a black veneer in the scarf joint but I noticed when I cut the veneer that it seemed softer than I would like. So for the heck of it I clamped a sample in the vice and wacked it with the hammer. The one side split right on the veneer. The other side the Padauk fractured and the veneer stayed. I am not going to risk a neck with results like that. So I came up with a different idea... you will have to wait and see.
I ended up pinning this one outside the neck so I could line everything up right. The headstock should be one piece...
