So Ron. What size do you need for the headplate and bridge?

I am busy tomorrow with the TV people coming to finish filming, but I could send something out Thursday, Priority Mail. It would be the same wood that you have for the fingerboard.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Doesn't fit? Get a bigger hammer.
