    Default local source for slotted & raidiused bass fretboards

    i should do it myself but for economy sake was hoping to buy one for a project just about to get off the ground here
    made a few enquiries to the usual suspects but everyone seems to be busy right now which can't be a bad thing -
    12" radius is what i wanted - there are some around with 16" but hoping for a tighter radius
    any one got any ideas?
