Hi, I'm Stewart. Just received my LP-1M.
First time build for me, so I'll more than likely be asking a lot of questions. Glueing in the neck springs to mind!
Grateful for the support here.

Hi Stewart! Welcome. It's generally a lot easier than you think it is. And as the good old HHGTTG says on its cover "Don't Panic!".

And Welcome from Sydney!
Gluing the neck is not so bad, just highly recommend doing a clamped mock build first, to see where everything sits and insure that your neck is sitting straight and true to the body centreline and bridge.
If you've got questions just jump online and fire away, there is usually someone lurking that can help out.
Welcome again to the forum and enjoy your build experience!
