That's just a poorly-designed cavity for the trem springs. It should not be the full width required for the trem block all the way down. That's why the screws missed the mark.

I'm sure Kurt will scream at the factory again and have it fixed for the next run.

Very true--I hadn't noticed that. I'm used to the Jackson-style recessed cavities where the cover sits flush to the body and there is some routing around the entire width of the cover, so this didn't jump out at me.

Body looks a LOT like a schecter on this batch, and that's a great top.

apart from the screws for the cover being too close to edge of the cavity the routes look pretty tidy, especially the control cavity, but you're right about the battery, they could have fit it in there and done with out the seperate compartment.

Interesting. I prefer having the battery compartment as it means you don't need a screwdriver to change the battery. Personal preference I guess.

Methinks its a little more "pro" to have a battery compartment. 'Course if you want to go 18 volt it may suck.

Did they need it, probably not. Do I appreciate them adding it anyway, definitely.

I don't really mind having the battery compartment--definitely more convenient, although EMG batteries last so long that it's not a big deal either way.

Only thing that has kept me from buying one. UNTIL NEXT WEEK!

Here's what the original Interceptor route looked like:

At least we got the rubbing issue resolved, now if we can just get them to leave more tonewood
