@darrenking Do you hold your neck in the desired location (with clamp or masking tape & super glue), attach your template gizmo to the body flush to the neck, then remove the neck leaving template exactly where you want it?
Guitar making is the art and science of turning expensive wood into sawdust.
masking tape & super glue
arrrggghhh!!!!!!! Don't let Mark hear you say that! 🤣 🤣 🤣
Please see 'No more Sloppy Neck Joints!' topic for further details of jig and possible method of use.

Great build @rockpile99
I have too many guitars...said no one in the world..ever!
Been playing around with body ideas for the next build.
This one is really a variation on what I've done before but at least I'll know it will work.
This I like a lot more - sort of bastard lovechild of a Tele and Dan electro?

@rockpile99 Yeah, I like that shape too. I take it you will be using neck screw ferrules instead of a plate or a set neck. Should be a good build. Good luck. 👍
Make guitars, not war 🌍✌️🎸
that make a lovely thru neck...

@Boo Yes, it will be ferules (or maybe set neck if I do a neat enough job of the joint). Haven't used a plate on any guitar I've built yet. One of the joys of building my own has been no more 'palm stab' from blocky neck heels 🙂
