Good lessons learnt, you've mentioned making your own neck next time, you'll spend more time on the neck than you do on the rest of the guitar, I'm not trying to put you off, the lessons you have learnt so far will be indispensable when it comes to making your own neck. I'll give you a list of Luthier tools you will need and the number one supplier, they will cost between 3 to 500 dollars but are worth every penny, but let's get this one finished first
