My first PBG TLA-1 build

Okay, this is a good learning experience.

first up you want to try and work out where it has gone tits up.

I’d start by re-establishing your Center line and seeing how the neck and bridge line up to that, it may point out whether it was drilling or the marking prior to the drilling that has gone wrong.

if you can, post up a couple of shots of the rear of the neck pocket area and the drilled back of the neck, and a couple of the bridge in relation to the neck. The team will probably suggest some other potential fixes.

Everything is fixable, mate, don’t stress to much about it.

Thanks Frankenwalshie,

The following pics are with everything taken off. And in place loose.

Seems to me it's as you say. The neck has shifted between taking off the clamp and drilling.
IIRC On mine I was able to hold the guitar/neck in place (with my hand) whilst running a smaller drill bit through the body holes.

Cheers, Mark.
