Nice job, old guy, even if you did get the bridge on upside down

Ron,


I have always been partial to oak in a previous life when building furniture. That is a gorgeous piece on a guitar.


I also really like the tuner buttons. Would you mind sharing how they came into life? If you made them personally, did you use some sort jig, they look really consistent.


Thanks,


Joe

Joe, the buttons were made by Bill Nichols, but I don't think he is doing any more at this time. I don't know, now, I just checked the site and he still shows them.
