Hi there!

I was wondering why all suppliers that i know who sell pre-slotted or pre-fretted FB don't Maple ones? I've seen some for guitars but I'm looking for a bass. I could find one for bass. The only thing i've found is complete or pre-carved necks with maple FB. I'd be OK to take a pre-carved neck (it is for a personnal instrument, just need it as soon as I can!), but every one that i've seen seem to be flat-sawn, when I really want a quartersawn one...
So, is there anybody could give me some tube on pre-slotted Maple FB, pre-carved QS neck...

Thanks!

Francis

LMI does custom slotting. Board plus service costs the same as a pre-slotted but you have to wait a few days.
