    "Starcaster" Build

    Hi gang,

    A new build. Freshly arrived today - super fast shipping.

    It looks great.

    I've never done a hollow body and it looks like there might be a cap of some sort on it. There are a few machine marks I will need to sand out.

    I've attached pictures. Should I sand them, try hide them, or should I fill them? The more obvious flaw in the photos is above the surface of the guitar (maybe glue residue or another machine mark). The other is a scratch that is maybe half a millimetre down and goes for about 8 cm.

    Whats the best way to get rid of the scratch? And whats the risk of going through the cap getting rid of the other marks? There's also some separation around the neck pocket: is this a problem? The body feels solid around there...

    PS, is this a set neck or a bolt on neck? It seems like a set neck but I figured I'd ask first.

    I asked PBG a few times to see if they could get me a starcaster body in. They did it. And it's great. Thanks guys.

    Thanks
