Bingo328 Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 Hi all, I was recently working on my very first project getting ready to drill the holes for my neck I just recieved from Warmoth when I noticed somewhere along the line my measurements were way wrong. About 5/16ths at the bridge wrong to be exact. My question is it possible or even worth it to fill and redrill the 4 holes for my Tune-o-matic bridge and possibly shim one side of the neck pocket to straighten out my mistakes. If its not worth fixing does anyone have a creative idea for a body that looks good and doesn't work at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 Go ahead and fill & Redrill, as long an you use a solid color finish it's likely that you 'll never notice the repair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bingo328 Posted June 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 What is the best material to fill and redrill with. I was also thinking it might be easier to shim and re-rout the neck pocket a little to re-angle the neck and keep all my holes, any thoughts?
