Finally completed my first build and it actually plays. Hickory neck thru body, ruler fretboard and bridge, oak tailpiece and Staron nut. I was that the pup came out of a Epiphone something or another. Volume pot only.The action turned out a little higher than I wanted but it plays well. For slide anyway. I'm pretty pleased overall!

Thanks Chip! That sounds like a good plan. I still have another foot or so of that ruler material and at least another foot of that 1/4" brass rod left over.
great looking build!! If you want to lower the action, just cut a v-groove in the top of the bridge and drop the brass into the ruler until you get it where you want it
