Just arrived today. Setup is roughed in ... will be double checking relief tomorrow Sweetwater did all right by me on this one. Seems solid. relief was > .012 but an 1/8 turn and now it's actually a bit under ... right where I like it. String height at 5/64" ...now I'm just debating what strings to use ... I have Labella's on my two P's but I want to run rounds on this one. I'll figure that out over time. PORN!
