On track to get the guitar Monday or Tuesday, right when i am up to my ears in guitar work. No rush, i might get time to drool over DB's and Clarence fret job and dribble some beer on the neck to break it in. :p

watching closely on this one, I have a JR-1 due for delivery this week too
I wont get much done before i go on holidays, you will probably be well ahead of me when i get back.
I do have a head start because i decided to use DB and get the neck frets and the nut done, saves alot of messing about later.
Well the white van came and went and dropped me 2 parcels, i wonder what they can be?

:p
nice one Tony I got one of these kits in the pile to build.
I was assembling a JR-1 kit yesterday and found out the wrap around bridge the post holes should be wider than they are.
Can you please check if the bridge holes on your kit line up with the post holes ?
A TOM bridge fits so I am going to use a TOM and drill some string through holes - easier than relocating the bush holes
Just did a quick mock up got a few bits and pieces in the woodwork at the moment, body and neck, but will get to that as we go.
Lots of paper

Can you please check if the wrap around bridge bush holes line up ok ?
Yeh Wok will do it in a minute after i get these pics done. And yes thats the Bushfire Sunset should look good
