Hi all y'all.
Didn't take long to find my first snag.
Started to do my mock build. Neck fits the neck pocket nice and snugly. Measured the distance from inside the nut to where the second (closest to the bridge) of the two dots indicating P12 at 420mm which sounds pretty much spot on.
So, place the pups into position, pick guard, wiring panel ...
And then I go to place the tailpiece so the the saddle for third sting is at 840mm from the inside of the nut, only to find that the hole for the earth wire is quite a bit further out, beyond the end of the tailpiece.
So, what have I got wrong here? What am I missing?
