    Update: no kit yet, and no word of shipment.

    Rations are running low.

    The future seems bleak.

    Waiting for a custom kit is awful.

    Why did I do this. Why didn't I just order an RCA-4. Why did I do this. Why.

    Also, I ordered an Omega badass style bridge with pre-slotted saddles, and it looks pretty nice. Excited to try a badass bridge out for once. I don't know what the Hipshot Rickenbacker bridge does to tone, but I've heard the badass style bridges are a little bright and add some high end zing to the natural tone. The Omega is Zinc cast like the original Leo Quan bridges, if that makes a difference.

    Because you have a picture in your head of what you want, and the RC-4 doesn't fit it. Persevere. Collect your other bits. Work up your build plan to distract yourself. What steps will you need to take, what tools do you need etc.
