So I'm actually making progress on the crossover guitar..
The neck to body attachment is mostly done and the tuner slots are routed into the headstock.
This will be a completely removable neck so it has what can best be described in wood working terms as a floating tenon which is glued into a mortise in the neck and floats in a mortise in the body similar to a regular bolt on mortise & tenon neck. The reason for the floating tenon glued into the neck is to that
propell nuts can be used and there is no possibility they will tear-out of neck end grain.
There will also eventually be a fingerboad support routed into the body.
