Location: Tampa, Florida | One thing I love about my new LX is that there is a truss rod cover. Now I can order a custom one in any wood with some nice abalone decoration. I did this for one of my Taylors and it really helps to personalize the guitar. I have to figure out what I am going to get to put on my NEB Elite LX. This is te guy who did my other one

I also think i'll put some gold grovers with ebony buttons on it. Maybe schallers. |

Location: NJ | I was turned on to Nichols by Ron Thorn. they are both very good inlay people.
I wish the factory would use that lazer cutter more and offer some factory original special truss rod covers.
but what the hell do I know I only sell gear for a living. |

That eagle is too nice. |
