Probably a little ambitious for my first build, but really wanted something with the Floyd Rose style tremolo.
Received the kit a few days ago. There are a few things that bugged my OCD, but I will work through them:
1 - Big scratch on back of neck
2 - Big scratch on face of body
3 - 1 rough fret (little burr from the tang)
4 - Body too thin for the football jack plate, there will be an overhang
4 - Need to route the rim around pickup cavities so the cover plates will sit flush with surface. Also going to make my own cover plate.
I will upgrade some of the parts, which I planned to do anyway (tuners, switch, pots, and eventually the pickups). Also going to drill a hole for a third pot.
Going to take my time with this and hopefully it turns out well. The dragon inlay work is amazing. Going to try and compliment it with a purple/green color morph paint job.
