Thanks all for you answers to my questions. You've all been great. I just receive my ES 2V kit today and have already tape off the fret board and body cavities and I'll start the first sanding tonight. The kit was darn near perfect. The neck fit really well. The neck and freat board are perfect. The fret ends and binding are beautifully done, smooth-with no sharp ends. Everything lined up perfectly. By the way, yes that is a new Ibanez GB10se in the picture. Just got it about 5 months ago. After waiting for a couple of months for them to come in; I had to send the first one back due to some finish problems on the hardware. The second one (pictured) is beautiful and plays like a dream. The best sounding Jazz guitar I have owned and I have owned about twelve of them. From Ibanez to Eastman they where never just right. So I sell them and use the cash to go on to the next one. This one is great! a keeper.
