Only things I see maybe missing are fretboard marker dots (face and side) and finishing supplies. Good luck with the build, and post pictures when you get going :)

what are you planning to finish it with? you;ll need to think about that at some point, although it can wait a little while. you may want a cover for you truss rod unless you are going to make one.

My plan is to stain it and the use tung oil. I did that with the kit I put together and was rather happy with it.
