how do you do the into body strings like this? http://resources.ibanez.com/resourceservic...st/APEX2GSF.jpg

Anyone know where i can get a super thin trussrod? i wanna make a Wizard style neck from ibanez. I like super thin necks

Well im going to be using a TOM bridge with strings going into the body. i am definately going to recess it. (I like the way it looks) . how do i figure out how far the neck angle should be? nvm found a calculator. http://www.tundraman.com/Guitars/NeckAngle/Index.cfm hope that helps someone other than me haha. Ok i think i got the info i need for this one last question though now. any tips on finding the exact point on the neck to cut for the frets? im following a chart on the link i put in the original post but its very very specific. any tips to get those measurements on the fretboard?

That was actually super helpful. Thanks now a few quick questions. Do you measure out the rest of the frets or just let the lines determine the thickness? As far as neck angle, does that have to be any certain amount? if so how do i figure it out? i saw that thread on measuring neck angles but idk what the use of it is Other then that i think im ok. ill post another thread if another question on the build comes up. Oh and where can i post pics of my build for people to see and help me on? As far an a neck profile im doing an Ibanez Wizard 1. Rhoads body and neck through.

Ok im gonna be honest. I have no idea how to approach this. I see guides for necks showing that they want the nut to be a certain width and the end of the neck to be a certain width. How do you come up with these measurements? It sounds stupid but i wanna learn as much as possible before i start. If my question doesnt make sense heres what im talking about This tut shows the width of the finger board and neck http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/neck.htm Pics 8 and 9 show the width of the nut and end of the neck. the measurements are 42mm and 56mm. how do they know this difference is correct? is it a formula u follow or something regarding scale length? any info you can tell me id really appreciate it. Thanks Mike
