Hi all, I got this kit as a christmas present to myself and have been doing bits and pieces in between spending time with the family. As mentioned in my welcome thread i noticed some tearout on the back of the headstock during my initial unboxing which unfortunately isn't completely covered by the tuners so will need some filling.
Now that I've spent more than five minutes with the kit I've also noticed some other issues that I'll have to address throughout the build including a crack in the fretboard, gaps in the corner of the binding at the end of the fretboard, glue squeeze through all over the veneer on both the headstock and body, and what looks like a glued crack in the body near the neck pocket that doesn't want to sand out as cleanly as i'd like.
Attached are some pictures from my test fits and some of these issues, since this is my first build if anyone has any advice it will always be appreciated!
