Hey all,
This is my first kit build. I just received my RD-1 kit shipped overseas to Chicago, IL, USA. Arrived in less than a week in good shape! Cutouts are clean and the basswood body has a decent grain, though I may still be spraying some opaque nitro finish.
When slotting the neck into the body, the fit is very tight and snug but the fingerboard doesn't make contact with the body, as if the pocket isn't deep enough maybe. Perhaps screwing the neck into place might lower it, or maybe it isn't an issue at all. I'm not quite sure to be honest, so I figured I should ask those of you who know what's going on haha.
I took some quick photos to show:
