Hi Guys, I'm back for more questions after a few months out.
I have a fretboard and some nice ivoroid binding to go around it. The fretboard is the perfect size, perfectly cut. Will I need to cut the 1.5mm around the outside, or will the binding be blended with the neck?
I would have assumed that it would be cut to the pre-binding size (1.5mm less on all sides), but I have been researching and seen some articles on fitting binding on an existing fretboard, which wasn't cut down. I'm a little confused. Whats the best way to approach this? Terrified that I'm going to remove too much material at this stage.
