1st Build - GR-1SFG

[36 24 36]

Gave the neck a light sanding last night and very happy with the fit. This is only pushed in hand tight so im thinking the gap on the bottom will be much smaller when a clamp is put on.

[36 24 36]

Measured the nut to 12F and bridge to 12F. Not sure if this is accurate for this style guitar but i was getting ~305mm from nut to centre of 12th Fret but ~320mm from bridge to centre of 12th fret.

Measure to the ‘crown’ or peak/centre of the fret wire itself, and the high e saddle (wound most of the way forward) at the bridge end. From your images it looks like the measurements will be pretty close.

Got a couple of hours yesterday so did some sanding and put on first coat of DT butterscotch.
Happy with the colour. Couple more coats and i think this could look really good.
Presume 0000 steel wool or acetone can be used to take the stain marks off the joint strips?

[Fretworn]

Nice colour. If 0000 doesn’t work you use a sharp razor blade and carefully scrape the binding and you will remove any stain.

That is looking fantastic, very bright and sunny!

Now there's yet another one on my wish-list.
If the 'factory seconds' isn't currently setting off some serious teeth gnashing.

cheers, Mark.

I know right? That PRS 1H is searing a hole in my brain, as is the FS-1.

I grabbed the five string stingray bass...great purchase....beautiful mahogany body.

That factory seconds list is addictive. 😎🎸🎼🎶🎵
