The inlay is from Andy DePaule www.luthiersupply.com. They are made in Vietnam-no CNC just a fretsaw.

If you haven't already, check out his site-amazing quality,service and selection,very reasonable prices as well.

That one's real nice. I don't recall seeing any Koca wood before but it's pretty. And +1 for DePaule's, I had him do a run of custom inlays for me and they were well done and quite reasonable .

Nice! Interesting headstock.

_________________
The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Thanks,
I designed that headstock 38 years ago and (when I was 16) and have been using it ever since. I actually still like it!
