    I'm no pro, but the action is looking pretty good. Didn't have to mess with the neck position much at all. Had a fair bit of trouble with the bridge though 'cause one of the pre-drilled holes was about 2mm off. Still, managed to get everything in place with some... gentle persuasion (mallet) :P

    Nice copper shielding job Bec. Beware you may have to scrape some of the shielding off where pot lugs may make contact. I've had to do this to a few builds where the pots are recessed, especially the top two neck pots are recessed deeper.
    I presume the yellow wire is an earth wire from the bridge posts ?
