I am helping a friend build an OM. I had planned to use the B stock from Martin's Guitarmakers Connection but it is difficult to find them. Does anyone have one or two they want to part with, they don't have to be perfect. Or can you recommend someone who makes them?

thanks
Richard

Richard,

John Hall, one of our sponsors (Blues Creek Guitars), might be able to provide a neck from his Martin stock.

John Watkins makes them and often has some he will part with discounted for various reasons: http://www.cncguitarparts.com/

Also, the guys here make some lovely necks:

Actually it is the most common CNC neck made. Watkins CNC parts, LMI, Stewmac
25.4 scale 1.75 nut is their most common CNC neck. Hanalei Moon makes great hand machined necks as well
