After much patience, time, and effort it is finally ready for the strings. I start out with a set of #9 strings which is one of the thinnest because the neck and the body have not had a chance to get used to any pressure yet so I needed to be as gentle as possible. This scared me at first because when you fully tune a guitar to E it's an insane amount of pressure on the neck that most people don't notice. If my guitar neck wasn't securely fashioned then there would be the possibility of it folding up and breaking the neck.
