    This doesn’t look right…

    Hi All,

    So I’ve attached the neck to the body of my pitbull MB1 kit but something looks very wrong. I ensured the neck fit perfectly into the pre-cut cavity on the body, lined up the holes on the neck plate with the holes pre-drilled into the body, and used the included screws. Now the neck plate (looking from the back of the guitar) hangs over the side of body by about 50mm. Looking from the front the side of the neck hangs over the intersection with the body by around 50mm too. What have I done wrong? It feels like the included neck might be too wide for the body? Or the holes were pre-drilled inaccurately? I can’t upload photos on this forum because it says something about the photos being too large. I took them with my phone so I don’t know why they are too large.

    Hi Johnny,
    if you resize the pictures so the longer side is less than 1000 pixels they will load. I need to use the medium size images from my phone!

    Pics will definitely help. You can use lots of programs to resize or crop. I use this app on my Android phone to crop and resize:

    If the pic is on my computer I use an open source program called Irfanview to do the same thing.

    Better to use the 32bit version. The 64bit version is still in beta and has a few bugs.
