Does anyone know of someone who makes necks. This is really sad for me to have to do, but just don't have the equipment any more to cut them. Personally carving necks was one of my favorite things. But at this point will move on and get them done and concentrate on other things.

I now use a bolt on butt join. Need maybe three necks.

Andy had back surgery, and might still be out of commission.

Hey guys! Thank's for the plugs, your kickback checks are in the mail ;)

I will be re-opening the website and the shop in the next week or so and slowly ramp back up. I still have some weight restrictions and won't be up to 100% capacity right away but in a few months I should be better off than I was the last two years.

Stan, shoot me a PM with your e-mail and I'll mail you some stuff you can work on before the website is back online.
