Tks Woks and Stan and Cal.
Wiring has been done for months. To me the wiring is easy except when I wire the pot left to right instead of right to left.
Big problem right now is the archtop bridge is about 3mm too high. I have three options get another lower archtop bridge, drill the knurled knobs down 3 mm(and run the risk of the base breaking, or drill out the post holes and go for a standard LP style(not my prefered option)
Note for Adam, the slot for the neck was way sloppy, in fact it had a taper of about 1.5mm from front to back with it getting wider towards the back. I've bogged it up with glue and topped it with a tapered lump of binding in the top of the join.
The neck is pointed straight at the middle join at the back of the guitar body. So Happy with that.
Had I pointed it in line with the top edge of the neck slot the high E string would have run across the B string pickup post.
So this can never be a GOTM. but otherwise I am comfortable with it.
Cheers PK
