This build is finally coming to an end with the last post being the Moses Graphite Neck preparations.

I left off in my last post with putting the brass inserts into the neck. That went 'decently' well actually. (just a few tool marks on the back end of the neck, but that would be inside the neckpocket).
Next I had to get the neck on the body. As I started to put the bolts on they all lined up perfectly.. except for 1! "Oh No!" I thought to myself - I just ruined my awesome neck! :(

After taking it apart again and peering through the body screw hole I noticed it was off by just a hair though (must've had the screw to mark the hole at an angle ever so slightly). I also noticed that the hole through the body was extremely tight for these bolts. So I came up with a simple solution: I ran a screwdriver through the hole which cleaned it up just enough so it would line up. I then made sure that bolt went it first and grabbed, after which the rest went in nice and tight.

I tried to capture how the guitar looks, but it's really hard to get a proper picture of the Mystic Blue. It is VERY striking in person.

And all done!

I haven't yet plugged it in, but even acoustically the guitar plays wonderfully and feels great. The neck almost feels more like a 'super flat D-shape' to me, which I think feels amazing. I definitely recommend these Moses Graphite necks!
