    Could be a less drastic solution perhaps.

    cheers, Mark.
    hmm.. That looks better.

    After the first post here advising me to measure.. Ive now dummy installed and measured 10 times.. Every time thinking more and more that theyre not going to fit.

    It looks like my bushings are 8*mm, and pre-drilled holes in the headstock are 10mm.

    Looks like these should do the trick... Thanks heaps.

    yeah, looks like the kit was all over the place.. Hence the pretty big discount.

    Also noticed written on the side of the box - "TL-51 Twist" - I'm really not hoping that means they spotted a twist in the neck. I don't have the best eye for picking out a neck that is not quite straight. But surely I would notice this?? The neck looks pretty straight to me.
