The knobs are.. ahem... coming... on Tuesday hopefully.
I used the copper tape that came with the kit (DingoTone?). I must have ticked the box twice because I ended up with two lots in the package and I needed all of it. After cutting my self the first time I used the handle of an old tooth brush the flatten it (maybe it needs to be metal). But some while casually fiddling with it during conference calls on Friday I cut myself some more! (never learn)
Yes, the wound strings need to come down. But I'm not sure there is enough height for that. I have some feel gauge so I'll measure it. Looking at the pics the nut slot seems too wide for the nut and there's this add channel at the front of the slot which is preventing it from sitting flat.
