<p>There often are opportunities to glue multiple things up at once and when this is the case it's not a bad idea so long as there are no dependencies from one thing to the other.</p>
<p></p>
<p>In this case the body geometry is pretty important when fitting/setting a neck. The UTB (upper transverse brace) is pretty key to top shape. Be this as it may I would glue the brace first and then fit the neck. You don't want to be fitting a neck to a moving target so-to-speak.</p>

<p>Why not glue both up at the same time using the brace for pressure also ? All should dry at the same rate...btw I have no experience doing this...jus'wonderin'</p>

<p>Would putting the neck on first perhaps throw the tongue angle off from where it would be with the bracing in place? This was my concern, but I wasn't sure. Thanks!</p>

<p>Bracing first, neck second. Doesn't feel right to me to do it in reverse. </p>
