Lay it in a level table and place the inclinometer on the fingerboard. Since you want the back to be flush with the table surface, the neck will probably need to hang over the edge.

Thanks, John. That worked great. I was mentally locked into trying to do it from the top, for some reason. I got the guitar on a fairly level surface, topside down, placed the inclinometer on the back of the body, in the middle, pushed the Reference button, which set the display to "0", then placed the inclinometer on the back of the neck at various points. All were mostly in the mid-4s, as I suspected because of where the bridge/pickups had to be.
Worked great. Thanks again.
