Time to Start on the Neck | Building an Acoustic Guitar

With the body almost complete, I think its time to get to work on my acoustic guitar neck. I'm starting with a neck blank that my friend Thomas sent to me. I made a couple modifications to it to make it fit my needs. I then cut it to length, routed the truss rod channel as well as channels for some carbon fiber rods. Then I attached the head plate, and got the headstock cut to size on the router table. This is a good start to the neck.

Your method for the head plate harder than it needs to be. Take two pieces of square ply one atop the other, run the edge over the table saw with the blade tilted at the same angle as your headstock, say 13 degrees. Now you’ve got a jig with a 13 degree edge you can place the head plate in between, secure, and table saw or plane off the edge to meet that angle.
Then the work is done. Glue it on and good to go
