Fretboard fret spacing and saddle issue with kit guitar
Hi to All,
I just received a kit guitar today, a 000 all Mahogony small body kit ($550 AUD worth).
i was checking overt the parts and found the following 2 issues which I am thinking are maybe unacceptable...
1- I looked over he fretboard, fret slots are already cnc'd in place.
The spacings between frets 14-15 and 15-16 are the same, because fret 15 is out by about 0.5mm.
Its quite obvious and would be more obvious once the frets are in place.
2- The saddle is 2.7mm thick, and the bridge slot for the saddle is 3.1mm wide. So the saddle is quite loose.
The manufacturer says thats acceptable, I don't think it is.
Any feedback would be appreciated, as this is my first attempt at a guitar and its not a cheap kit, so I want these things to be correct.
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Cheers,
Chris
