Well I lucked into a handful of 10 mm dowels.
I've also decided to to it all proper like, and put in the dowel, cut it near flush then sand it flat and re-finish the head stock.
There is no rush to get it done - after all is said and done I can't play worth a cracker and this was all about the fun of the build.
(Which despite the moments of doubt and frustration I am enjoying).
As for the Bad Monkey pedal - $55 at JB Hi-Fi, I gonna get me one!
Do it, I've got one and I love it. :)
just caught up with this thread Rabbitz.
Worth doing properly and re-finish, look forward to see how it turns out
I wish they'd tell that to the blokes in the factory and save us some heartache:PQuote:

While I hear what you say Barge, and this one has had its issues, the fact is that for $160 or thereabouts, delivered, the quality is pretty good.
I think the strat is like $125. I've spent more than that on lunch, and you get to keep the guitar...
I would add however, that a set of jigs for drilling the headstocks would go a long way... :)
$125 on lunch, holy moly!! Be sure to give me the name of that joint so I can avoid it!!Quote:

We're not talking about trying to split atoms here, I don't reckon there's any excuse for trying to get a few holes drilled in the right place.
Is it really that much to ask??
Fair comment.
would be better if we just got the headstock not drilled
