Exploded view of guitar body,the top is complete
except for cutting the braces to allow the sides to rest on the inside of
the guitar top,this will be done after the neck is glued to the top. In
preperation for glueing the neck to the top a recess must be cut to allow
the fingerboard side of the neck to be flush with the outside of the top
this recess must fit perfectly to the interior of the top. Caution this is
an angled cut as the neck is at an angle created by the solera to make
correct action height. Also as the top is domed it will be slightly curved.
Think before cutting the neck do not rush and when cutting allow extra wood
for final fitting.
