    Have done a quick mock build and like the action so will probably have to get some screws and a back plate as they are missing from the kit.....

    1 question i have is the intonation.....i measured nut to 12th and got 313mm and yet 12th to bridge saddles was about 318 mm (See attached picture)...do you reckon i will be okay with this length given the string compensation required ????

    First thoughts on the build are to keep the back and sides natural just oiled as the grain is fantastic....and a deep blue oiled top......
    Already got a list of needs....

    Graphite Nut.
    upgrade the Rhythm / Treble backing plate.....looks a tad nasty.
    Upgrade three way switch......Feels awful and slack.....plus too much lateral movement...
    Upgrade the Control Knobs.....Same reason....

    anyway photos including the mysterious bolt on neck......I guess number 141 is gonna feel the wrath of god.....Click image for larger version.
