Who wants to spend hundred's or
even thousand's of dollars for an
guitar or mandolin and have a $2
plastic TRC?
I make several from Ebony, Maple,
Rosewood, ect. Many I make for
customers are inlaid. Simple pre-cut
inlays are the least expensive and
have the quickest turnaround. Custom
jobs will obviously cost more and can
take longer to complete.
