OK, I've about decided it's time to get my headstock script precut. I've hand cut everything so far, but cutting the script is my least favorite part. Would be a piece of cake if I had a shorter name! Who is doing custom inlay in reasonably small batches these days? I remember Bordeaux and there was another one that has totally slipped my mind that was hand cut in Vietnam. Grrrrr....it's right on the tip of my tongue. |

I would say look at someone in the US ..... you will need permits and stuff to get them into the US legally if they are done elsewhere, although Andy Depaule takes care of that when you order thru him. |

Yeah, Andy DePaule! Thanks! Although I'm certainly interested in shopping around, so thanks for all the recommendations. |

Have you considered using "Wes" for your logo instead? |

Well, I thought about "M", but John Mayes already has that one claimed! |
