I couldn't tell, are there lines on it to mark the fret positions?

there are not. the "nut" is a bolt with 5 nuts on it that act as string trees. By no means is it permanent, so I didn't want to have to try and compensate the lines moving if i bump the "nut"

Got it! You could just tape a temporary template down or something. Unless you either don't care or your ear is way better than mine. :snax:

Vibrato all the time. LOL

When I have lines I use that as a crutch. All I do is stare at the lines and not actually think about what I'm doing.

Dude. Radical. Forced baby to quietly listen to the demos with me at 7 in the morning.

You think you'll do more "finishing" on it or leave it as I?

I thought about finishing it but I think I'll just leave it. The parts are all donated and the nut is a bolt, so it will never look like a commercial model anyways.
