It's easier with a model. Send me a link if you can I did. Here is the URL again - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3472541

It's very kind of you to offer. I'll PM you the address. The standard bezel is a flat plate whereas the one modelled has a raised portion at one end that I don't want. I haven't found a model that hasn't been modded somehow. I would only want the flat plate like the original below. I don't know how difficult it would be to remove the thumb rest and leave two countersunk holes at the corners and the two plain screw holes between.

I certainly didn't find it intuitive even with the help of the designer of the hardware. I missed out on your earlier post where you were offering to print items for members. I'd have submitted this link to a model of the pickup bezel on my B2A. The corner broke off off one of mine by the screw head, just where I put my thumb, making it uncomfortable after a while. This particular one has an added thumb rest which I didn't really want so I left it.

I'm not touching that unless it's moist as well as stiff. In all seriousness though, I am watching with interest. I had a brief involvement with CNC router table manufacture. I couldn't quite get my head around the 3d software that it ran before I moved on from there. It left me with a fascination for it having glimpsed the potential though. I like the idea of 3d printed homes.

Welcome Yolanda.

Not half as surprised as the other shoppers at ALDI.

Always wise.

Since the neck is off already I will assume you mean to remove the fretboard. Those frets look well worn. Will a fret dressing be enough? Great colour. Never mind... I see what you mean now. Perhaps best not to remove the fretboard as it has some nice binding and concealed fret ends.

Welcome JJ.

Aw... sweet.

Welcome Luke. I think you'll like it here. Check out some of @Smanth's Build Diaries. We'd love to see your MIDI controller too.

That's turned out really well.

Welcome Tianan.

Aw poor duck. Best wishes to her and yourself. Great build. When are you going to have a special little bassist to build for?

This. It is also interesting to see how ideas originate and develop over the course of a build. Fill yer boots.

Welcome Simon.

Or... you could fill the gap with builder's foam? Nah. I like that you are keeping the original route with the J pickups.
