Well - it's got two coats of Danish oil - it needs more but I had to put it together to see what I have now...
It's not wired up and the string trees are still needed (I wanted to see where the strings are first).
Found out the bridge is just a tiny bit crooked) the Neck end is a little less than a millimetre skewed to the lower bout.....
Overall - very happy with a first try.
There is a lot of fret buzz - but I've noticed aa number of the frets need to be tapped down - acoustically it's not as loud as my Tele - and the tone is a bit "off" with the fretbuzz...... something to try to figure out.
The strings seem to be tighter - more tension.... I had thought it would be the opposite.
The scale length (24.75) seems to be better for me though.
