At least for this past weekend, Mr. Zombie Luthier was setting his Brazilian/adi 000-42 and D-42 12 fretter's necks, and shooting the sealer and flash coats on the second of his 355 repros to pass through this shop.

Had a nice discussion on vacuum clamping at the monthly breakfast Saturday re: zombie threads and vacuum clamping. In addition to the usual disparity between clamping pressure using vacuum and other methods, it appears as though length of time under vacuum plays into the staining issue...the longer under clamp, the deeper the penetration of the stain. The use of tissue or other permeable barrier between the bag and the guitar was also discussed as a precautionary measure.
