attaching the neck to the body (guitar refinishing part 26)

i finally got the courage to attach the body to the neck a few days ago. there was something too final about that action, but it had to be done. you might not know this, but i also did a complete re-fret on the neck and i was nervous about it. but i followed instructions. remove, bend, install, glue, file, level and crown. and i can't believe it worked out! here's a picture for all of you haters out there.

you can't tell by the picture but i'm playing a little song called 'the red barchetta'. it's one of the best music songs in the world.

David, I have been with you every step of the way. I almost feel like I've huffed all the toxic chemicals you huffed in making this guitar. All I can say is, I hope it sounds good. But if you're playing it, I know it will!
