If fretting off the neck, how do you deal with the backbow of the fretted board other than overcutting the slots, or is it even something to be worried about? My thinking was that it may make the fretting and binding a little more difficult, but it allows me to have better control over the fretboard and neck being dead straight before the frets go in.
