New Build From Bare Body

[HumanisHappy]

Hello!
Ordered this unfinished body from Vibeworks Guitars. Hoping to score a nice Warmoth neck to go with it. Let's see what happens! I've never been through all the stages like these from a bare body.

You know, now that I look at these pictures the neck pocket doesn't seem straight. I need to check it with the ruler!

Does anyone have any insight to this? Think will be OK, or? I mailed to inquire as it kind of makes me feel iffy.

I don't know what you mean by "straight", but the holes appear to be way shifted toward the top side of the neck pocket. That is, overall, just a disgusting piece of ... ummm ... workmanship.

Any other things you see? I like the idea of the body but want it to be straight, cut right, etc.

Good luck with that. From what I can see, it's a steaming pile of .

Well, looks like I’m returning it sadly. I wanted it to be better cause I like the concept.

There are some makers on ETSY and Reverb that do very similar body builds on 3D printers... probably you can get a more accurate version that way...
