Looks like the fixture to drill the holes wasn’t aligned properly. Did you buy it new? If so, I’d contact Sterling by Music Man.

I guess when making the SBMM guitars, they drill the holes for the neck once it is fitted into the body? That's just odd. Body must be pretty oddly drilled too.

in the interest of constructive criticism-- I was thinking about possibly picking up one of the new SBMM AL's, but my research brought up too many complaints about the trem stud inserts being poorly drilled & installed, leading to cracks in the body even. Turned me right off, which is a shame because I would really like to see the whole line do well....
It does sound like they need to improve their QC.

If you bought it new from a store, return it immediately without fixing it yourself. That should be a warranty repair or replacement.

That's definitely a warranty repair / replacement on that one. The guys over at SBMM will take care of ya and get you all sorted out
