Pretty much done with the body filling and i wanted to test fit the neck. The robot graves is a 25.5 scale and the stock neck is a little shorter. So I had to route the neck pocket and now I need to move the bridge back.


All this started when I disassembled everything and then noticed that the bridge block was broken where the whammy bar screws in. So now this is a complete yolo project.

I’m considering a hard tail bridge or mustang trem. First I need to fill the trem cavity with wood so I can screw the new bridge in place

That turned out great! Perfect for the SGV style.
