It's beginning to look like a violin!! Finished gluing on the neck. The neck angle is absolutely critical for good tonality. The neck depth into the body and the height of the fingerboard is absolutely crucial for good tonality and balance. The tilt and the pitch of the neck are absolutely critical for the feel and playability. It's a long careful process for carving out the pocket for the neck keeping every angle and measurement perfect. Also in these pictures, I finished the scroll and started scraping and sanding the neck and body. Still more sanding to do before I begin adding the finish. More to come...
