  • Arf. Ordered some 4mm dowel. Will have to shave or sand to fit then glue and whack.

    Also ordered the cheapest nut files on Amazon. Will see how that goes.

    Need to ream out the tuner holes this morning and that’s bout all I can do until I can attach the neck.

    Are there any rules about aligning neck and bridge? Which do people unusually fit first? I was going to go with neck first as the fit is fairly tight and scope for fettling minimal. The plan is to use high and low e strings (or floss in their place) to make sure I got the bridge in the right spot to mark holes for drilling. Thoughts?

    That's what I did yesterday when I found out my archtop had a floating bridge while changing the strings and said bridge did what its name would suggest and floated off the top.
