Can someone give me the length of the headstock from the zero fret to the tip of the headstock at the center of the 'M'.
TIA

I think that may vary a bit from model to model. Same thing for the "waist" measurement.

Maybe for the Venture model. It's not going to be exact. Just a learning experience.

I Semied the Headstock.
I'm finally satisfied with how it looks. Don't think at this point I can improve it anymore.
Also a couple more Zero fret photos. I'm just going to use a modified Bone nut, until I can make a good metal nut.

Except for final polishing and cleaning up, then paint, the headstock is complete with the new Zero Fret.

Nice approach on the fretboard extension...has this created any problems with access to the truss rod when adjusting the neck?

I think this will look great when it's all painted.
