@@BIGGUYMUSIC78 I can see from your visit to the factory why the instruments are so good, and why they are so expensive to make. I just wish I could justify the expense compared to the amount of money I make from playing gigs. :-(
CNC route out the body shape, but after that almost all the process are done by hand (of course with the help of power tools). It takes lots of time and labor of love. I can also tell you, running a "manufacturing" base business in NYC is VERY VERY expensive ...
