I might be thinking about this all wrong, but, here goes...
On a flat top uke, should there be a slight neck angle in relation to the soundboard?
I understand how this would be achieved by putting a slight angle in the heel before it's attached to the sound box.
But, then what happens to the slight space this would create under the fretboard where it attaches to the soundboard?
Does that even make sense, or should the neck (and therefore, the fretboard/frets) be parallel to the soundboard?
And, just to make this more confusing for me, if it's supposed to be parallel, then how would you keep the bridge from being super thin?
