Did you ever get that one fully finished? The build diary ends with a high nut and saddles. Looks very cool though, love the hidden mounting screws for the pickups.Originally Posted by FrankenWashie

I have been playing it as is to see how everything settles. TBH I don’t notice the action as it was intended to be a slide monster anyhow. It has a different sort of tone, I quite like it. At some point I need to do sound demos for some of these things.
I will get around to sorting the action eventually, there are just a few completions in the queue ahead of it!

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
Wiring is done and tested. Hoping that tomorrow I can test fit it all and make some noise.

Didn't quite get to the point of plugging it in today, but I've fitted the pickup rings, the jack socket and best of all, the neck. I've measured the scale length and located the bridge.
Hoping to get the bridge fitted later this week.

Thanks guys.
The Hannes is great. Height adjustment is a bit painful, and I'm a bit miffed that my through body string holes are a bit wobbly (not that you can see when it's all together!) - but it's super unobtrusive to play on and looks amazing.
So I've got 13-62's on at the moment, and they're waaaaay too heavy for the scale length. I'm going to get some 10-46's instead which should be pretty ideal for A/B standard-ish tuning.
I'm really lamenting my lapse in safety on my other project - I'm quite limited in what I can play, but the upside is that it will be easier to persuade myself to break it all down and focus on the finish.
