bought this blank awhile back and am finally getting around to building it but i ran into a problem. when i bought the blank batson had guide size and spacing listed on their website but since it's being rebuilt that info is no longer available so i was wondering if anybody had the info handy.

also what colors would look good on a matte finish blank with titanium hardware? don't want anything that's flashy. i'm kinda aiming for simplistic but classy look to go with the mother of pearl reelseat insert and zebra wood grip

Garnet thread with silver or pewter trim. Best performance would be from laying it out like the Library article suggests. Static guide placement.
