If they made them looser, then you would be complaining about a "sloppy" fit. An emery board and 5 minutes and done.

0.42mm difference sounds too much for humidity, but it also sounds too much for "tolerance", if body and neck are from the same manufacturer.

Are they from the same manufacturer?

It's always useful in a forum to give as much information as possible, maybe even some photos.

I went ahead and sanded each side and managed to get the neck in although it’s still pretty snug.

Sand a little more (on the neck).
