Aaaaaargh ... I knew you'd say that. And if only I hadn't just done such a neat and permanent job with the graphite neck insert (ep*xy), I would. But now I hesitate to remove the neck from the block, and I don't know how I'd go cutting/splicing the neck with the graphite in there. It's going to ruin my tools, isn't it??

I think I'll tack the old fingerboard on first, string it up and see how it plays. If its playable for me I might keep it that way. If Its all too hard, then I'll HAVE to shorten it, won't I? Either to give to my daughter, or to sell. Grrrr.
