It looks super. When you listed all the “mistakes” in various posts I was expecting a disaster. -

@tej
Cheap screws and bolts made of soft metal are a common problem. If you’re getting into building a lot it’s worth buying bags of spare machine head screws and pick up bolts. They’re not expensive from gear4music or similar supplier.. -

@tej
Are the pick ups a matched set or did you buy them separate from different brands. It might be that the impedance on both is different. -

Welcome Pete, strongly suggest you marry your girlfriend, if you lock that in now before you fill the walls with guitars it’s more likely she’ll stay 😉😋 Looking forward to seeing your build progress, enjoy! @whyte @tej Yep, that’s exactly… Read more»

Clearly you’ve not tried their router!
@irishwhiskeycoke @tej Yep their routers are set to kill, as well as their drills. 👎

@tej First of all, I think the guitar looks great, great job. If it was me, I would leave it, the glue doesn’t really stand out that much and it’s not in a noticeable place. If I really did want… Read more»
