some tips in using paulownia ... now, this is a soft wood - perhaps
softer than soft white pine. do not over tighten neck screws. replace
all strap button screws with ones much longer - i use 3" steel screws.
pre-drill bridge, control plate and pickguard screws with a drill bit no
larger in diameter than 1/16". after screwing in a screw, back it out
and you can strengthen that hole with a few drops of quality thin cya -
allow time for the cya to harden! do not use a standard tele jack cup,
instead use an electrosocket jack cup and do not pre-drill the screw
holes - just screw gun the screws directly into the wood.
