I think if a newer version of this kit comes out when restocked it will be better, in reality i would give it 3.5 stars…
My son is happy with his les paul custom kit now that its all together and working but there was much more little things not quite right compared to the set neck sg kit with maple top i got for myself…
-The neck had about an 1/16 gap in the neck pocket or either side of the neck,
-The ground wire to the bridge must have been an after thought, no wire was included for that and the hole not drilled,
-The electronics were have soldered together but backwards and didnt match the wiring diagram at all….once dismantled all the pieces and soldering, it went together fine,
-Whoever was supergluing the plastic nut on was having an off day at the factory, the was glue run off and it was crooked and the left some finger skin on the nut lol,
-The set neck part that goes under the front pickup was too tall foe the pickup to sit in the hole,
-And the only thing i was really worried on is a crack that wraps around the back of the neck from fret board to fret board at about the 10th or 12th fret….but after stringing up and adding a vibrato tremolo system the neck is still holding and square woohoo,
The mahogany body was a little extra rough, but thats fine, the palm sander went through a bit more paper for it
Again, it took more work then should have been required but its now playing
