My first kit was an SG-type 12/6 double neck.  didn't come out great but not awful either and sounds ok.  It has glued/epoxied in necks.  Just recently acquired  a strat kit.  Of course it's got a bolt-in neck. Am a bit apprehensive to drill the 4 holes and twist in the screws- worrying if the neck might crack.  It must happen now and then although I've never seen it.  My other question IS- I haven't checked the frets and neck with a rocker or gauge yet but in the event the frets need leveling - is it fine to do that before drilling the neck fastening holes as long as the neck fits snugly in the pocket?  Hope this wasn't confusing-</p>
