I think I'm profound
So I'm trying to plan out my first build (I bought some explorer templates) and I realized I have no idea about how thick to make a neck? I know I can just measure the guitars I have at home to get an idea but I was wondering if there were any standard/recommended measurements. I like thinner flatter necks in general but I'm clueless when it comes to neck thickness and profiles ( C,D, U, etc.) I've looked around and watched videos on neck profiles so I understand the basics of it to some extent but applying it is where I'm picturing myself having trouble. The template is for a set-neck like traditional explorers have. So I'm assuming I'd have to add a heel where the neck meets the body? or could I avoid using a heel by doing something like neck joint in the picture below? Any advice is much appreciated!
