I’ve finished the build. I think it came out really well and I’ll post some pictures soon. I used two different shades of shellac and strong coffee on the skin.
Two final kit questions:
How high should the peg posts be above the peghead? I got a bit of shellac in the holes and I can fix it but I don’t want to make the holes too big by mistake?
Why did the small screw near the tuning peg for the fifth string go away?
