Hi For a fingerboard that is 50 mm at the nut,it should be about 60 mm at the 12th fret. As for the depth, I gess that you mean the thickness of the neck. I make my guitars 21 mm at the 1st fret and 23 at the 9th fret. If you dont have a set of calipers to take an accurate measure, you might be able to buy a cheap one in a DIY store, they usually are good enough to do this kind of measurement. Thankyou Pablo, much appreciated, Im in the proccess of having a guitar made for me, and im just wondering about all this stuff. My guitar maker made me this guitar, which is incredibly easy to play and has a wonderful tone, but ive struggled at the higher positions, and im thinking maybe i need a slightly wider and deeper neck. As im left handed there are not many guitars \I can try out on But on my classical no problem so i think that the solution is at hand, thankyou Pablo.... Grant
