Yes, but I'm less than -100 now. I reckon in a few more years, I'll be getting close to -90. 😜

Just make sure you're wearing your hi-viz jacket whilst soldering, and you'll be fine with the leaded stuff.

That probably depends on your level of experience / confidence - not guitar building specifically, but also with precision woodworking in general. On a scale of 0-10, I started as a negative number on...
