    As long as your templates are aligned and secure, it's not bad...

    You seem like you can handle it...

    Practice the exact cut on some scrap before trying on your guitar...

    That's what I do...

    Yup. Piece of 1x pine or poplar board, cut it down and glue two pieces together to get the rough thickness of a guitar body, and rout away. Not tone wood but good to practice on.

    LOL..i meant to say..How do you carve the hole where the 42 block of floyd rose part is.
    I can dive down but up not to much.
    So I'm guessing I have to just copy the schecter floyd rose hole that was routed in the Original body.
    Anyway..I did it..by hand..today gonna install electro.
    Getting rubber hobby sheets to inlay the floyd rose so all looks slick.
    I guess this bitch will be finished in a couple of days.

    Well my soldering was utter shit with the p90s..i'm not an electrician etc..LOL..I don't have the budget for kickass pick ups yet.And then when you got the best you find out you got a shitty fx board or multifx pedal..so then you wanna get the 1000 dolla Multi fx pedals and ya keep on going.
    I think I'll get more sustain but I like p90 but have to learn how to install electro.

    It all depends though...

    P90's generally sound great, but they do hum quite a bit...

    And in the wrong guitar they can sound really bad...

    I use the very expensive trial and error method...

    It's a good way to sharpen your soldering skills, as well...
