Lets review class. Once the bridge is on, and the neck is on, all thats left to do is put on the strings. RIGHT? Yes, except for leveling, shaping, and polishing the frets. And sanding and polishing the fretboard. And the final polishing of the whole guitar on the buffing wheel. And the careful tapering of the bridge pin holes. And installing the tuning machines. And fitting the bone nut. And slotting the bone nut. And fitting the bone saddle. And shaping the saddle for proper intonation. And least we forget to make and sign and install the label. And clean the inside of the guitar. And install the end peg for the strap and of course the neck peg too. So yes all one must do after the neck is on and the bridge is on is to put on strings.
