Say I have a 25.5” fretboard already, but I’m looking to make a neck the size of a 24” scale neck, although I don’t care about having as many frets crammed on as a 24” would have. Can I not just cut down the fretboard, and say have a 19 frets or so and still just place my bridge accordingly, 25.5” from the nut?
This is for a theoretical duo sonic build. Trying to use what resources I already have on hand to some extent. My only concern is that this would place the bridge possibly awkwardly far away from its normal position. I’m making the body, and the pickguard, so I’d be able to make it look natural I guess. I’ve never made a fretboard, maybe now’s the time? Trying not to spend more money than I need to here.
Then again I could just make it a 25.5” scale duo, but what fun is that?
Thanks for anyone’s thoughts.
