    Its the little things (0.4mm) that get me down

    Please excuse the shoddy woodworking skills evident in the attached pics.

    After getting a bit of angle on the neck, I used a bit of thread to check every thing was still square. To my dismay the old 1970's era bridge had a narrower string spacing than the new gotoh bridge was planning to replace it with. I really thought I had checked this before ordering the new bridge.

    Now, as far as I know, my choices are use the old bridge, reslot the new bridge, find a new neck or find a new bridge. I'm not very fond of any of these ideas, though I'm leaning towards a new neck as the old one may need bit of a sand and refret.

    Does anyone have any experience with the necks available from PBG?

    Thanks
