I am currently building a 4 string cbg with a precision bass pickup. I intend to try a bolt on neck so as to be able to adjust the angle easily for a good action.
My question is if I am using a seperate fingerboard and want it to overlap on the cigar box, how do i make it nice and neat? ie if I have an angle on the neck then the overlapping part of the fingerboard will also be at an angle to the top of the box
Any help appreciated!

That, to me, is especially hard if you have a box with a sloping lid. A nice square box is easier to line up a fingerboard on.
You kind of have to get the neck angle set first, otherwise you end up with a space under the fretboard, right?
You may have to adjust the action with the bridge instead of the neck angle.
