Action is a bit too high, time for a reset.
My particular oud has a lot of embellishment to deal with, so I'm not sure exactly what kind of joinery I'm dealing with.

is this an Anwar Kibbeh? I had one once, a very large oud with a big sound.

Who'd a known it was so simple? Louis and Marie-Antoinette, just line up and get your necks sanded ...

And after a good neck reseting, following the french tradition, please apply a smooth french polish on it.

... to stop the bleeding.

Seriously 
for a neck reset old Arab luthiers use the word "Dhabeh" which means
butcher or "egorger" in French.
May be Dr Oud can even invent a special oud guillotine, painless like the French used to claim, though I cannot confirm.

....... and here is a handy little tool useful for those more challenging "Dhabeh" projects - for those luthiers unfamiliar with 18th C French
'cutting edge' technology.
suz_i_dil - 10-10-2012 at 08:33 AM
Come one...Don't be scare. This little tool is absolutely painless. Nobody never complained about treatement by this technology.

.... either way decapitation (or worse) is inevitable!
