I had not talked to John in a while so it was good to hear from him. I just thought I would pass along to those that did not know. John is shutdown for a while to build up inventory. He expects to be back open near the first of November with a vast inventory of bridges, 6 and 12 string paddle head and slotted head laminated necks as well as many other parts. I do not know for sure but gathered from our brief conversation he is trying to get away from so many single order semi-custom necks and instead have a ready supply of most wood and lamination combos on hand when he reopens.

Just thought I would pass this info along

Thanks for the info, Michael! He's one of the best suppliers we have.

I sure hope he's keeping up his golf skills!

Does anyone know where to find the small outer diameter brass inserts (similar to what John uses)? I believe they are 1/4-20 inner and .365" outer.
