Loose Neck Block :: 1960's Aria Barney Kessel

The top is separated from the neck block and not providing much strength for the bolt on neck joint. Here I'm clamping the neck back to realign the top while gluing and clamping the loose area.  The neck block had slipped so much that there was a significant stack of shims in the neck pocket to account for the fallen neck angle.

The bridge is also being refit on this hollowbody.
