Craig has recieved the fretboard but not the peghead veneer. Also he agreed to do the peghead but not anything on the fretboard.

Where is the peghead veneer? We need to get it to Craig. What do we want to do about FB markers?

Craig as just informed me he no longer has time availible for the peghead inlay with out delaying us big time due to is current backlog.

Plain Jane is fine, it'll still sing. How about Brock did he ever finish binding the thing? Where does it go next and what is the schedule? Time to get this guitar moving again or it'll fall into the time frame of NUMBER ONE?

But when this started I had a lot of time. That all came to an end last month. I now have at least a 9 comission wait (with deposits), and one is a NAMM showpiece. That's going to take a bit of doing... My sincerest apologies.

At that rate I won't get to a side job for a few months.

Please let me know where to send the fretboard I have.

Craig L.

Besides this is not for our glory, it is for a glory much higher than we can touch. But that does not mean it higher than we can achive.

I am just swamped. I will get it done. I have about 2 more hours worth of work then I can send it on.

Michael, I've even been remiss in sending out the pickup. Do I still send it to you?

Until my day job lets up, I don't see any building in the near future.

Yep Don, it still comes to me. Guy I do understand. I am in pretty much the same boat. but will do all I can possibly do to get this box to the recipient. In fact I have bowed out of another venture till after August because of a data loss and not enough time to start over till sometime in August or September. It is not like me to turn down paying work but I am commented to this project and willing to help out those that are in a bind on it anyway I can but I am afraid that offer is limited. However we are too close to give up so if you can, give what you can so that we can give this to (!) he is well deserving.

How about doing a simple "OLF" inlay in the headstock and be done with it. Michael, If you design it I will cut and inlay it when it cones to me and we'll just put dots in the fingerboard, unless someone else wants to step up and offer some inlay.

you got it. I will email artwork in the morning

John, Michael, just a thought, how about doing an OLF inlay simular to the one that Craig did for the FOLK guitar? That way, in a way, they would appear to be from the same family, "our OLF family"

Just a thought
