    Hi from Lyon, France !

    Hi everyone !

    This is Alex, from Lyon, France. I just received my RD-1 kit today (after only a couple of weeks, not so bad) and I'm very excited about it. This is my first build and, to be honest, I'm a bit nervous about making a pig's ear of it... So I'll try and take my time, for once I've already started the mock build and it looks awesome ! Can't wait to get started on the sanding
    I'll be posting a build diary soon, and I have many questions for experienced builders out there.

    See you on the forum real soon !

    Welcome! Take your time and all will work out well. Check and re check the bridge position in relation to the neck make sure the strings run over the neck straight.
