Agent Jem Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 I need to drill new holes for a tune-o-matic bridge and a stop tailpiece. When should I do this, before or after I put the many coats of laquer on. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 before.drill the holes, blow them out so you don't get sawdust in your finish.finishing is the very last thing you do before putting it together and playing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 Yuppers, course if you end up with a healthy thick finish you might have to redrill some of them for a proper fit but like Wes sad before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
