  1. If I build a maple neck, do i need to but a fret board on it ??

    If not how do i build a mapole neck with out a fret board. I want to build a maple neck like fender does with there tele's. And to me i don't think they have a fret board, am I right ???

    PS If anybody reads this i'd really like to know the thickness of a tele's body

  2. Here's what I did to make a good-ish Jazzmaster template.

    1, find a pic of it on the net (must be a good photo, flat and straight on, not at an angle) and print it off - try Warmoth, they've got some pretty good images in teh bodies section fo their on-line catalogue.

    Ifound a pic of the body i want to make

    2, decide scale length you want (you could maybe half it for convenience).

    lets say i want a normal scale of the neck for the bodie i want

    3, Blow up the photo on a photocopier using A3 until the scale length of the photo matches your real-life scale length.

    this is where i get confused

    4, Copy the body area (will probably take a few sheets of A3 which you'll need to stick together

    this i understand

    5, You should then have a full size body shape which you can trace onto your template material and shape

    and this i also understand
