I'm looking for some ideas for different thicknesses to try on a 5- or 7-piece neck.

Would LOVE to see your multi-piece necks.

Post your photos PLEASE! (and thank you)

I didn't say I made it, just that I had one. That's a neck on a Little Blue Martin that I have. But it looks like maple, maybe birch?
