I got woken up super early today by Regan, and couldn't get back to sleep. She went down for a nap around 9:30 finally, so I decided to just knock out carving the neck. Spoke to Frank yesterday, and he wanted it to be rounded, more like his Gibson, so I did my best recreating that shape from memory of how my old Les Paul and ES-335's felt. If Regan stays asleep, or takes another nap later, I'll drill the headstock and/or start cutting the inlay for the faceplate.
The neck is wiped down with mineral spirits in all pics from cleaning, and to show the grain.
*UPDATE*
Just cut the slots for the tuners. gonna do the inlay tomorrow
