4th build

Thanks for the interest so far.
This kit came to me at a discounted rate and I have another kit on the go at the same time so I'm planning on treating this build in a light hearted way. That means while I'll give it my best re parts and finish the intended final presentation won't be traditional.
Sorry Adrian I know you lost your stash of Gasket porn, unfortunately your credit card details didn't match my bank requirements so pants will be worn.
 
At it again today, cut the headstock shape, ATT intend doing the same as recent resonator project (second photo).

Yesterday filled the step at neck to body joint.

Finally put a light coat of seal / primer onto the "fluffy" timber.
Going to do most of the before paint finish prep after it's primed, the grain just keeps standing up, I'll fix that :-)

Nice work!!
 
Really nice progress!

What kind of glue did you use for the neck joint?

What did I use, NECK GLUE, haaa haaa.

Couldn't resist that dumb answer. Fact is this and the previous build each came with a small plastic bottle of the suppliers recommended glue and it's unlabeled. The first neck I set I used an industrial strength glue that works on anything even glass, was overkill.
