If they are that loose then you will likely need to use superglue to get them to stay put. It's not something I've had to do (yet) but it is fairly common. I'd imagine clean up would be a bit of a beeeatch after though.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
So had a go at using dingo wax on the fretboard then super glue on the fret seems tohave held the fret and allowed me to scrape the super glue of easily
installed some vintage style tuners with some black bushings
You always have an interesting style of dyeing guitars Barnsey. Its very unique

So I'm having dramas with the wiring. I had it all working outside of the guitar then when i tried to fit it the thread on the pot and jack plug weren't long enough. Sorted that out and redid the wiring and now ive got no sound, the current tester is reading 15 plus from all active points to an earth point so I'm a bit stumped as to whats wrongthe pic has te active on the jack tip and earth to one of the pickup slugs
