I have seen a source where you could buy neck templates for various commercial guitars. I am making a neck for a person who wants a goodall neck shape. I do not know of any goodalls in the area so would like to purchase a template for same. Anybody know what that source is?

TIA
John

Tracy at Luthier Suppliers - one of the OLF sponsors, the link is at the top of the page. I used one of his templates on the neck I'm just finishing; works great!

I just got three templates from Tracy and they are well worth having even though a little expensive on my smaller CXanadian dollar and the share the border gestapo want to take. As always Tracy comes up with something useful, I use my center finder a lot and wonder how I got necks right without it and I am sure the neck templates will be as useful.

Thanks Steve and Fred. I appreciate it.

Fred what happened to NAFTA anyhow. I thought we were supposed to be able to have cross border commerce without awful tariff.

NAFTA has only killed jobs in Canada, jobs move to USA or Mexico. Actally there is no customs duty on imported items but if they pass through the mail the government charges sales tax and a $5.00 handling fee for charging the tax, if the shipper uses UPS or similar they charge custom brokers fees which are real high.
