    Hey Avia, I think this is actually one of my first posts on this site. Have you updated the UG thread? This is looking AMAZING! lovely!

    I had it all drawn up, to scale and had everything working and thought I was just making minor adjustments. I could still do it exactly to plan, having a raised fingerboard; But I thought that recessing the edge would be easier. The edge is an original edge, I think it's found on some RG570's/550's and they've all got un-angled necks and are recessed but I just couldn't find any information on the pocket sizes. Hopefully this has cleared things up, Again, thanks for the replies

    Well, thanks for the reply It is with a neck-thru which I can't /really/ make angled, I know it's possible except I'm a further down the line. The two questions that I jsut wanted confirmation on are: So is recessing an edge any different from recessing any other trem? If I can have it recessed, does it make up for the action lost by not having the neck angled? Thanks in advance

    Okay, quick quick QUICK question... I bought some plans from Guitarplansunlimited and he said he couldn't find any info on recessing the bridge so we just raised the fingerboard... BUT! I have decided to atleast try recess it, if it goes bung i'll sell the edge and put in an OFR or something similar. In the plans my body was 1 3/4" and the fingerboard was 1/2" above the guitar. Right now I have a 1/4" fingerboard and the neck is flush with the body, which is now 2" If I recess the bridge 1/4", it would be the same as having a 1/2" fingerboard, Right? Cheers
