This has been covered alot, try searching. In theory it's not difficult at all, with some patience. You'd have the loss of thickness in the heel to worry about because you need to remove the finish from the heel of the neck. It's alot easier to do it the way I am, because I'll be building the body from scratch, plus I'll be able to do an U rout on the neck heal for a bit more survace coverage and (in theory) sstability.
