Thanks Simon.
I think I will leave the locking tuners for now then and see how it goes.
More progress yesterday.
I have veneered the headstock. Not sure what the wood is but it has some nice flaming going on.
Spent ages thinking about the shape for the headstock - not really sure how (or why) I ended up with this one though!
Last job of the evening was setting the neck. It all went smoothly in the end after a couple of dry runs to make sure I knew where the clamps were going etc.
I added a couple of strips of veneer to the front of the tongue just to create as much glue contact area as possible.
Dry assembled the pu's and bridge etc for the photos and it all fits well.
No more little gap at the corner of the fretboard/pu cavity.
Now to go and write another thread elsewhere in the forum and rant about shoddy TOM bridge assemblies.
