Looking good .. seems to be going well , only that early routing disaster so far :-)
It's really good to see these before and after shots ... what do you reckon , about a third of the way through?
I've never seen a neck built like this before .. fingerboard and binding glued to the neck as one , impressive.

Matt at M3*California sent me a pic of the mold for my lefty vibrato. They ran into some trouble with the one they did before this and decided on a do-over.

:roll: Yeah, we got in a hurry on the first one...Tom (our foundry guy) tried to do some other things with it and kinda messed up the overall design. So we scrapped it and we got to work on a whole new one. This one is very, very, very close to the righty...
How dare you presume to inject, using reproducible facts and rational thought, an on-topic discussion into a thread that had degenerated from sarcasm, personal invective, and hand-waving arguments?
