Complete List of Components for a Build?

[itookacanuk]

I am a day or two from ordering my first build and have read a few posts about forgetting easily overlooked yet essential components. Is there a post that lists everything I would need to complete a guitar? I am mostly focusing on the things that are hard to get get locally. This is what I have come up with so far:

VIP Body
-Deep panel input jack
-Gotoh 510 bridge (ask them to drill holes for it)
-Pickups
-Pickup mounting rings
-Nobs
-Switches
-Electrical wire and components (not concerned about things I can get at Radio Shack)
-Already have strap locks
-No battery box needed

Neck with GraphTech Tusq XL nut
-Sperzel tuners
-Neck plate
-Neck plate bolts

If I'm overlooking things It will be a great benefit to find out before I order, so thanks in advance for the help,
David

Kind of a side note but might be helpful.......IIRC someone had trouble with a deep panel jack and a VIP body. I think it was a gold jack sourced from Warmoth that wasn't as deep as the others and the needed some Dremel tool lovin to make it work. I could be wrong maybe somebody can corraborate or debunk this. :dontknow:

I'd have Warmoth install the studs for the Gotoh bridge as well.

That could have been me with my black korina strat. I had to dremel out some wood to get the washer and nut down far enough to be able to grab threads.
Not a big deal to fix but worth mentioning.

Thanks for the ideas. I think I'm about 3 days form ordering and I'm starting to get excited.

When I ordered my guitar, Rob Rounds went through what I imagined to be a complete mental checklist in his mind and made sure I didn't forget anything. A phone call may be worth it? Good luck and you're gonna be happy! :hello2:
