Thnx yep, the holes were about 1mm off on one side, but fuck it, I just put those screws in and enjoyed the Mastery tone/feel upgrade :blush:
Great. Mine was probably 3-5 mm off (towards pickguard), just enough that I couldn't even push the mastery saddles over to compensate

...been going thru some personal/"family issues"...

So whatever, I thought, I'm gonna do something good for me, then, I thought.

And even though I'm trying to massively downsize, i got myself a deal on two guitars that had been haunting my dreams for quite a while now.

This is the first one.

John Hall is going to show up at your house and break all of your guitars because of this suggestion.

I didn’t know who he was, but a Google says he lives in England, making that a worryingly credible threat. I’ll have to lure him to Wunjo Guitars, where a 481 someone modded with a mustang vibrato will send him into a state of shock and divert his outrage.

I cannot remember what they want for it but it certainly felt ambitious.
That's definitely a smarter idea haha.

Quick edit - I had a look on their website and they've actually got around to listing all their used guitars - £2995!!! There are unfucked ones online for that.
