I finally got to lay into her big time! I played all night last night and all afternoon today. Once the new strings settled in she stays in tune very well. The pups scream. I was nervous about the 1 5/8 nut as I'm used to 1 11/16. The 1/16" is noticable! Noticable in a good way so far. Evrything is compact, and although my hands are like bear-paw-catchersmitt I can play open chords cleanly and scales, licks and runs seem FAST! I like it :)

Now the corker.. It wasn't til I took the pickguard off that I had the epiphony "I need screws with white heads not black". I asked for white screws in my pickgaurd heaven order. I'll post pics once the makeover is complete!
