I have a client who wants snakewood buttons for a set of Gotoh 510s. I have the wood. Anyone here with a CNC machine set up to do those? |

Watkins had some at the Great Lakes gathering, but I'm not sure what tuners they were machined for. I believe he was entering an exclusive contract for that particular design anyway, but it could be worth checking with him. |

I believe Bob Garrish offers them now. (Search "tuner" under topics) |

Bob Garrish at Saintlutherie.com can make them. He is working on refining the process but he may be able to help. |

Howard, I think they are available from LMI for the Gotoh 510 but they are most likely limited to the woods on hand. |

Well, I just happen to be in their neighborhood, if they can make those buttons as a service. But I don't see any wood buttons for Gotoh 510s on their website. Where/when did you see any from LMI? |

I bought a few sets of the EIR buttons from LMI and they are very nice. |

I wish they would make them for 510 minis as well. Hey LMI, are you listening??!! |

I learned that Bob Garrish is set up to make them for the minis. He soon will be for the mid-size as well. |
