The engraving on the truss rod cover is done in-house. We used to
just go to the mall and have the trophy shop engrave with their automated machines, but we decided to take up hand engraving so we
could offer designs and fonts that are not part of those automated rotary engraving systems. We use a push-graver, and get a nice deep bevel cut in brass. This picture
shows where James had just finished the serial number portion, before he started on the "...behind every note.." inscription.
A human hand is needed to impart the emotion, else they are just scratches on metal. When you participate in building a memorial to a loved one, it makes your heart grow bigger. You get to know them through the project, and it gets a new life of its own. So while we know from Michael that he's deeply pleased with the bass, it is we that are grateful for his invitation. |
