    The neck tenon was a bit too long and was blocking the neck pickup, so that got fixed today with the saw:

    nice fix Fred, I have found the same problem with the SG-1F kit. I put my neck through the bandsaw to chop out a small block, that was nerve racking !

    I don't have a bandsaw so did it with the handsaw and removed the slice softly with a chisel. All under control! :-)

    Now back to sanding...
