tools for neck shaping?

I'm building a six string. I've got a good piece of maple and I'm shaping the neck from that. What tools do people use for this? I've seen a lot of videos on youtube where guys seem to be just shaving off the wood to shape the neck but no one ever says what tool thay are using.

  • I use a spokeshave.  There's nothing more satisfying than a nicely carved neck and a pile of shavings on the floor.
