Well that's the neck bolted on and the locking strap hooks fitted
Bridge and tail, yeah I signed the pickup cavity, you never know I might be famous one day...
Strings are on and the nut height tweaked, although there is one slight problem...
BOLLOCKS!!!! The neck socket is too deep, I'd like to blame the issues I had with my router but I can't really, at the end of the day I measured it out wrong. I think the mistake I made was in the blending of styles. I measured the socket to look like it does on my Les Paul with the finger board sitting on the body. However the bolt on socket style I actually copied off my Yamaha where the finger board sits above the body. Ah well live and learn and it's not a complete loss as I can fix it!
Using some of the sound board off cut I made a piece to go under the neck that follows the contours of the body thus lifting it up a perfect amount. I thought about painting it to match the body but thought that given the amount work involved in blending the colour on the body it might look patchy whereas leaving it natural makes it look deliberate. I sealed it with the matt lacquer before fitting it.
*edit 21/11/2015* I have since found out that I didn't actually route the neck socket too deep. In my inexperience I didn't account for the fact that a tune-o-matic style bridge is much taller than the Yamaha RMPro2 bridge, that and the lack of carving on the top.
