Next, I want to get the pickguard in place. Attached the bridge, just with the two outside screws (so that I didn't have to fiddle with the centre saddle), and then put it on. Starting to look more like a guitar!
Figured that I need the control plate in place too if I'm going to get this right, so dropped it in and discovered a minor problem -- the cutout for the control plate looks like it's the wrong shape slightly:
Also looks like the cutout for the neck heel is a little out; bit of an overhang when the pickguard is in what feels like the right place:
So it looks like a little time with a sharp knife and/or a file is in order for both of these, unless I'm missing something.
