Hi guys - I need help with my 12 string Telecaster build. The body is drilled for a string through bridge at the factory and the back holes are drilled in a straight line wheras the front holes are not in a straight line . Consequently when I instal the bridge the strings cannot all come through.Should I try to drill from the back to correct this, as otherwise the bridge seems to end up crooked .The bridge is not a normal Tele bridge as it has 6 saddles not three that came with the kit . Please help as i cant workm out what to do . Thanks, Roger .
Photos would be useful.
