Awesome Frankie! Great job! How do you find the low profile volume and tone knobs? Are the easy to adjust when playing?

Sorry Fretty, I missed this one.Originally Posted by Fretworn
So far, the low profile knobs are fine. There is more than enough height to curl my little finger around on the fly.
I’m likely going to have to redo them though as the mounting hole in the know was just a tad loose so at the end of travel the knobs can move on the shaft.
I will have to go back to drawing board on how I do these, it may require a Center sleeve with a grubscrew to lock them down.

Cheers John, there’s still a little fretwork and intonation to deal with, but on the whole pleased with how it turned out.

Very nice work!
I feel like fretwork and intonation continue FOREVER
