    Still waiting for it to dry properly, still slightly tacky. I am putting it outside on the nicer days now summer is on the way. Decided to start throwing the kit on it, and... there is no hole for the trem ground. Time to pull out a drill.

    And hmm, the knob that came with it fits the cheap 5-way switch, but not the American one i upgraded to. Note the screws that come with an upgraded 5-way switch are bigger than the cheap one too, so you can't swap over the supplied ones to match the colour scheme of the rest of the fasteners. Mine were too short also, had to file them down to a countersink to increase their length.

    Hmm, the drilled holes for the rear trem cover aren't centered on the trem cover holes... not essential. I guess I can make a custom trem cover.
