Another point about using the neck to measure: put two strings on the outside tuners, but also make sure the neck is seated fully against the bottom of the pocket. Most people, myself included, like the neck-mounting screwholes through the body to be large enough that the threads don't engage the body at all. When you're drilling for the tuners, it's easier to use a small ruler to line them up than to do it only by eye. I prefer (candle) wax to soap for lubricating the threads. The littlest screws for the tuners are there for alignment only, so they don't need to be structurally-strong. These guys love to strip their heads, especially if you're using an old beat-up phillips head #0 size screwdriver. I end up buying a new screwdriver every few years, even after sharpening the old one once or twice.

If you can't be a good example, at least be a horrible warning!
