Hi MrMayhem75, I would check it with a mirror like Deadman said but, most likley it will have a centreblock of basswood running through the middle. (It would need one anyway to mount the trapeze). I think you'll be good to put a stop-tail on it.
Have you settled on a type of stop-tail yet? I see you are from the USA. Just bear in mind that these kits are cut with metric system measurements, so if you are considering USA made parts, such as the stop-tail (which should be compatible with the kit bridge), before you buy it, just post the measurements on this build diary and one of us Aussies can check its compatibility with the kit stop-tails.
Its not a big deal, if you have to get a USA made bridge, most likely you'll have to dowel up the pre-drilled bridge post holes and re-drill with imperial measurements. If you are painting it Pelham Blue no-one will know
I see that the headstock is not pre-drilled for the tuning machines, which will be a plus if you want to get USA tuning machines you'll probably need to drill 11/32" holes (about 8.75mm). If you are using the kit machine heads or getting some mini-grovers (like on the Dave Grohl ES-335 Signature) the holes will be slightly bigger I think about 9.5mm.
Sorry, if I complicated anything.
It'll be great.![]()
