Rabz's LP-1M This will take some time...

Hi Scott,

The other side looks like it will be OK. It is just the B that is 2 or 3 mm out of alignment.

I was thinking that as the washer and mechanism will cover it that I would cut the plug 1 or 1-1/2 mm shorter than the thickness.

I'll run a 10 mm drill through, by hand to clear and debris.

I'll use a rawhide hammer if I can, failing that a 8 or 9 mm drift from the back.

Then the clean up will only be glue that gets out. The tape is a good idea.

I'll be drilling it in a press so I hope the wander isn't too great.

I bet that 10 mm dowel pins only come in bags of 100

Yep, I can post you a few if you don't want a whole pack. They do have fluted sides though...

Thanks for the offer Stan, I'll swing past the local furniture guy and see if I can't swap a beer for a handful.

Put a little metal pin in it to offset the E string around the B-string tuner. You could do it on both sides so it looks like its intentional.

Not the same, but similar to in this pic. (Im sure that guide pin thing has a name Im unaware of)

String tree?

Belt buckle?

Maybe one of those little clippy bits on a strat?

Run the D & G through it.

Really? Are they drilled by hand or something?

I'd have to say judging by accuracy (or lack of), and shear amount of problems with tuner hole placements, they probably are hand drilled....by a monkey. This is not an isolated issue.

of three necks I haven't seen a G model head done right yet... bad monkeys....
