Hello everyone, first uke build here and i have some questions. I had purchased plans for a uke build from a guy in England. He had said in his construction notes that he had purchased a mandolin preslotted fretboard from stewmac so i had also purchased them.
After i got them home and put a caliper to them they seem close to a soprano uke, which is the size im building but not perfect. I understand i cut it down to 16 frets, but do the fret slots have to be perfect? I understand how important the nut to bridge measurement is, but from the charts ive seen these arent right on, close tho. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
