  1. If anyone wants to actually measure, a set of under-string radius gauges is pretty cheap, under $10 from the usual online sources. Or for $0, get a string, a pencil, an exacto blade, a ruler and some poster board, index card or some other sturdy bit of paper. Tie the pencil to the string and a fixed point like a thumbtack at 12 inches, draw an arc on the index card. Repeat for 10, 11, 13. Trim the arc off with the exacto just wider than the width of your fingerboard. Then measure what you got. (how we did it before pre-made guitar tools became commonplace).

  2. They're near Flint somewhere, yeah? Sounds like pretty awesome customer service. I get a kick out of 'factory tours' at small businesses like that (and old Heritage). At one of the PSPs, Jim W/Alicia took me (and I think bolero) along to a powder coating company. I still have the baseball hat the guy gave me. We also hit the Bigsby 'factory' (more of a garage, really). Maybe I should swing by Metropolous and check it out (not an owner; just appreciate folks that are still actually making things).
