    ah yeah of course need 6 screws/springs for your Wilko bridge but may only need longer screws for E A D saddles. Sure it will be fine to intonate as you moved the bridge forward a good 6-8mm by the looks

    Thanks Simon I am happy with the way it is coming along

    Didn't last long, started to spit as I was packing up then the sun came out hot and bright so a couple of loads of washing went on the line, 15 minutes later we had a massive storm.

    Very weird weather this year

    Just fitted the Tonerider to the bridge and sat it in position, buggeration still need to excavate a little more from the front lower side of the cavity to get it to sit in place.

    May yet get the 1st coat of CG on the quit this weekend if the weather holds

    Nice progress Dave, did you manage to get any CG on today? The humidity dropped briefly to 70% but quickly shot back up to 95%..... sure is a bad season for any type of finishing...

    Nope nothing done today, I have a regular jam with some locals on Saturday afternoons and today I was on bass so took the PB-4H and pretended I was one of the Funk Brothers lots of fun but that's the longest I've spent on bass for many years.

    I should get the pup route sorted tomorrow and maybe slap a bit of jam on

    Pity it didn't come routed for a standard neck pup, I'd have used a gold surround plate instead of a scratch plate to expose more of the quilt.

    looks very nice DK, the CG has really popped the quilt nicely.
