Bob - that long stop bolt that you have in place (pre-cutting) is the same length as the pedal stops on the Bentley guitar that Davy Adams bought. Every time that a pedal was pushed, the bolt would flex and the whole thing would be out of tune. :o

Good grief Ken! You are joking!

That stop and the crossbar were over size so that Matt could cut to suit!..... It is fun trying to do this remotely and make sure every thing fits where it should but I've just spoken to Matt and he is right on track with it all!

(Donny.. Never thought! just wanted it all sorted for you before the meeting... it sounded great!)
