Some great advice.... Thanks everyone. I think I'll go with paying to get the neck setup.

So a bolt on neck. Holes in the body and not in the neck you say? Is it just a matter of clamping the neck when straight, measuring three times and drilling when clamped to the body? Or is it a snug fit and pretty much ready to drill when snug?

Sorry for all the pre-purchase questions.. Wanting to make sure I'm across it prior to committing.
