Hi All,

I have a customer looking to have neck made for a 1956 Tubaphone pot. Can anyone here recommend a builder? Vinnie made some good recommendations, but they aren't working out just yet.

Thanks!

	vintagetenor says: 9/25/2013 10:29:01 AM Thanks, Marc. I just took a look at some of Dan's work and agree that it's beautiful and original. This time around, though, the customer wants one that looks like an original Vega Neck.
