A study in modern neck/neck pocket markings

Post by flatfiver » Thu Mar 01, 2007 10:37 pm

I took a bunch of pictures while doing some setup work last week on my AVRI Jazzmaster.  Not quite as elegantly understated as the vintage marking schemes, but possibly of interest to some.  There's a couple nice shim pics, too 8).  Click for full size images.

Seriously, though, it's 3 pieces of pretty normal thickness cardboard.

Thanks, guys!
