Make sure both pup cavities have enough room to run the cables through them without getting in the way of the pickups and causing them to tilt or sit up high.

    If you need to get a drill or a Dremel out to create some extra or wider channels, I'd do it now.

    Hopefully you won't need to - but better safe than sorry.
    Already there and done mate, read page 33 i didnt just enlarge the holes i drilled extra ones, look at the pics

    So just a quick question to all the long time members...... Why is the name mentor under my name? I didnt put it there, i thought the name was just for the really smart forum members who continually help everyone, i still feel like a beginner and dont feel like ive done much to help at all.

    Nice logo.

    Looking at the neck pup wiring picture, I think you may have some issues with the wires interfering with the pickup leg and height adjustment screw, as they are currently coming out of the selector switch hole right where the leg and screw goes. Have you tried fitting the pickup in with the wiring there?
