Neck pocket question for non-PBG telecaster kit

[koolimy]

Hello,

I am a newbie to guitar kit building and I have a question about the neck pocket of my new telecaster kit.

As you can see in the attached photo, there is a slight gap on the bass side bottom of the neck. I have checked the distance from the top of the fretboard to the body on both the treble and bass sides, and it seems that the bass side is about 1-1.5mm taller than the treble side.



Is this a problem? If it is, would it be possible for a beginner to fix such an issue like this, or would it be better to return the kit?

It is not an issue of the neck not having enough space on the bass side, as it does not fit snug and even when moved the gap is still there.

I would appreciate any information. Thank you.
