Some more progress last night and this morning.
I drilled and chiselled out the pickup voids for the P90’s which was a bit daunting on a finished body but it went really well. Stuck some more shielding in but I’ve run out so can’t finish the overlap all around.
Next up solder the ground wire to the bridge post. I struggled here as the iron wasn’t hot enough soldering to a cast chunk of metal so I’ll invest in a new 40watt one for the remaining wiring.
I put the posts in, both the bridge and stops are nice and tight which was a relief and then strung it up with heavy strings.
The nut needs work as the D & G strings wont stay in the slots. I need some saw blades for this, if it doesn’t work I’ll get another brass nut.
Initial results are nice low strings even without tuning. Hopefully it can only get better.
