Pickup holes are crude from the bandsaw, rear headstock veneer isn't exactly right and is only singular, pretty nice woodworking but not alembic. They made the bottom of the crown headstock pointier. jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 1326 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Friday, September 07, 2007 - 7:47 am:    i don't understand why they'd cut out the slots for the pickups before mounting the neck onto a body. Kind of limits pickup placement graeme bsee Senior Member Username: bsee Post Number: 1777 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Friday, September 07, 2007 - 7:50 am:    Pickup slots are going to extend into the body as well, so it's not like the buyer can avoid routing anything. adriaan Senior Member Username: adriaan Post Number: 1598 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Friday, September 07, 2007 - 7:55 am:    And of course it has only a single trussrod.
