<p>I'd go for glue in, I think.</p>
<p>I'm often finding with guitar building (but can be asked to life in general) is that I often don't know what I don't know.</p>
<p>So when looking at a joint like that, with one side having much more contact with the neck, I'm wondering if there anything I'm not seeing that would throw up problems.</p>
<p>For example, if I'm gluing in a neck with a break angle, do I need to somehow copy that angle into the body top so it doesn't look weird. </p>
<p>Perhaps I need to do a few mock up with scrap...</p>
<p>Cheers! </p>

<p>I went to tight on a tele build and actually split the body in half when getting carried away clamping. There was a bit less wood due to it having a floyd but still, crazy.</p>

<p>It's on my youtube under smelly tele lol</p>]]></content:encoded>
