Thanks in advance!! tbrannon Junior Username: tbrannon Post Number: 19 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Monday, August 22, 2005 - 5:54 pm:    Bruce Johnson Here's a link to his place....does very nice work http://www.xstrange.com/ bassjigga New Username: bassjigga Post Number: 5 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Monday, August 22, 2005 - 6:18 pm:    Why not just have Alembic do it? ox_junior Advanced Member Username: ox_junior Post Number: 252 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - 12:37 pm:    I recommend my luthier, John Wescott. He mentioned that he's done work for Stanley Clarke, among others. You can find him at www.wescottguitar.com He's a great guy and will do a fantastic job on your Essence!

Bassjigga: I will eventually in case that I'm not satisfied with the luthiers, but i think that guys in Alembic are very bussy making the nice basses and only they will replace de fingerboard. Still I'm considering that option. hb3 Junior Username: hb3 Post Number: 36 Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Thursday, August 25, 2005 - 11:58 am:    I can back up the ox on this one....John Wescott did a primo job on my MTD. claudio Junior Username: claudio Post Number: 18 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Friday, August 26, 2005 - 5:30 pm:    Thanks HB3!!
