    When it came to stringing up time I couldn't get the action low enough. I suspect the spider, cone and rim is designed for playing slide. I machined the timber rim down further to drop the bits and pieces to get a normal action.

    i believe it is hit and miss. After getting everything in place for mine and doing a level up with the existing ebony bridge I actually found the action would be too low!
    nothing about these kits seems to scream “rigorous quality control”.
