I should be 'Medford Heavy' - I live in Medford and used to be heavy. Now I'm heavy-er :-)

Oh by the way - that is not the neck of the guitar - I asked Ken Cierp to make me up a practice neck with the bolt on tenon, and I use that as a handle to keep my oily hands off the goods.

Hi Dave,

I see your using a fixed mold along with the base of the MM - WHY?
Thx.

Can't speak for Dave -- but we do sell the tilting base contouring portion of the Mega Mold as a "Stand Alone" device. Guys like Preston Thompson have many projects going at the same time and use the traditional "Pro's Preferred" molds to prevent interruption and lend more flexibility to the various build schedules.
