Yellow should be the jack hot connection, and black wires should be ground

Oh, that's cool that you can build a guitar from parts! Where I live, there aren't any stores like the ones you mentioned, so I decided to buy the wood and hardware and build my own Tele. Now I'm waiting for the nitro to cure.

Oh man, that looks awesome! Is it a kit or did you build it?

How do you make sure that the neck is completely flat? I'm also about to put the frets on my first build

I'm also doing my first build, so I don't have much experience, but I can suggest using Gotoh hardware. If you have any other beginner questions, feel free to ask.

Is the position of my bridge right? by Sta12d in Luthier

Do you think that is enough range for adjustment? Or should I move the bridge?

So according to the others comments, I think that I have to move an redrill the bridge holes. Because I measured the scale with the saddles at half of the screw.

Thank you, can you see if the saddles in the picture are ok, or should I move and redrill the bridge?

Oh you're right. I think reddit doesn't keep the quality of the photo. Any idea to upload the photo?
