hey Barge looking at the pics of the mock build the front of the bridge usually butts up against the bottom of the pickguard, so are you saying thats as far north the bridge will go with the trem cavity ? Looks like its got to shift closer to the nut, you may even need to cut small holes in the pickguard for the pivot screws. Hope you got enough meat to re-drill the pivot screws. Looks like you may have to route out a larger trem cavity if thats the case
