Fitted the tuners. Soldered the electronics ready to go in. Just needing a few more sands with higher grit and some final coats of tru-oil.
A question about the 3 pin bridge - is it meant to sit flush to the body, or above the body to get the best intonation?

The three point bridge, the inserts don't sit flush to the body but kinda sit proud because there is no counter bore for the rim of the inserts. the bridge kinda floats off the surface, which is kinda dubious. I think Just about every one who has used the three point bridge who has posted here has complained about very high action. You could counter bore the holes and replace the bridge with a three point full contact. Can be a bit spendy. The Babicz bridge is a realy nicely engineered piece of kit, but I had to reduce the diameter of the attachment screws that came with it because the two holes at the back were just that tiny bit closer together than the bridge would like.Originally Posted by Trevor Davies
BTW the orange on the bevel of the headstock looks very tastefull.
