Some will do a 'mock' build. I decided to do the full assembly and get it playing well before addressing any 'finish'.
Don't want to encounter problems with hardware placement on a pristine finish.
[edit] Made a pig's dinner of the string-through drilling so in my case it was just as well.
cheers, Mark.
