If you think there is a twisted neck don't go any further until you have emailed Adam to see if you are entitled to a replacement as there were some kits recently that arrived like that and yours might be from same shipment?

I've already been in contact with him, and he replied really fast with great answers to my questions. Since the twist isn't that big and doesn't show really well on the pics (although it's there alright) I'll carry on and see if it works out. If not, Adam would look into replacing the neck.
I'm really impressed by the service, and even though I haven't even started yet, I'm already contemplating what the next project will be! :-)
Correct me if I am wrong Longfork, but it looks like the high side of the neck channel on the body of the guitar has not been routed properly. It looks like the neck channel is larger at the face of the guitar and gets smaller towards the back of the guitar.
If that is the case, I think the problem is not the neck, but rather the neck channel....

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean? Do you refer to the neck not fitting in the body or the neck being twisted?
The channel in the body where the neck fits (nothing to do with the twist)

Ah, ok. According to Adam the necks are wider than the outtake in the body from the factory as of recent. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, but I guess that it is better than the other way around.
I'll start sanding the neck this evening. Carefully...
Good luck then Longfork

Thank's, since I don't know what I'm doing, I'll need some luck! ;-)
